| Obverse description | Diademed, draped, and cuirassed bust of Constantius II facing right, wearing a pearl diadem with a prominent row of beads and a paludamentum over armour. The portrait is rendered in the late Roman imperial style, with a strong profile and detailed engraving of the drapery folds. The circumferential legend D N CONSTANTIVS P F AVG runs clockwise around the bust, contained within a beaded border. The overall composition is characteristic of the Cyzicus mint's production of the early 350s, exhibiting well-modelled relief. |
