| Obverse description | Bare-headed bust of Constantius Gallus, Caesar, facing right, draped and cuirassed, with the paludamentum visible over the left shoulder. The legend encircles the bust, running clockwise from the lower left. The Greek letter delta (Δ) appears as a control mark in the field behind the bust to the left, serving as an officina or emission identifier. The portrait exhibits the elongated facial style characteristic of mid-fourth-century imperial coinage. |

| Reverse description | A helmeted Roman soldier, draped and cuirassed, strides to the left, thrusting a spear downward with his right hand into a fallen enemy horseman; a shield is worn on his left arm and a second shield rests on the ground to the right. The enemy horseman, wearing a distinctive pointed Phrygian-style cap, falls forward from his horse while clutching the animal's neck in a pose of defeat. The Greek letter gamma (Γ) appears as a control mark in the right field. The exergue contains the mintmark of the Rome mint, with the officina letter divided by a wreath between the mint letters. |
