Beschrijving voorzijde Radiate effigy of Constantius II facing right, depicted with a laureate and rosette-diademed head, the bust draped and cuirassed in military fashion. The obverse legend encircles the portrait in Latin capital letters, identifying the emperor with his full imperial titulature. The portrait follows the late Roman convention of combining the laurel wreath with the jewelled diadem, symbolising both military and divine authority. The drapery and cuirass are rendered in fine detail consistent with Arelatum mint workmanship of the mid-fourth century.

Beschrijving keerzijde A helmeted Roman soldier, shown draped and cuirassed, strides to the left and drives his spear downward into a fallen enemy horseman with his right hand, while his left arm bears a large round shield; a second shield lies on the ground to the right. The vanquished horseman, wearing a distinctive pointed cap characteristic of a barbarian warrior, turns his head upward toward the soldier and extends his right arm in a gesture of submission or supplication. This FEL TEMP REPARATIO ('the restoration of happy times') type, classified as the 'fallen horseman' variant, was the dominant bronze reverse design of the 350s and is associated with Roman propaganda celebrating military resurgence following the usurpation of Magnentius. The mint mark in the exergue identifies the Arelatum mint and its officina.
