| Additional information |
Aquileia's mint was reactivated under Diocletian and became one of the busiest western operations during the Constantinian period, its output surging precisely because of its strategic position as a staging ground for campaigns into the Balkans and the eastern frontier. RIC VII 145 falls in the final months of Constantine I's reign, with Constantius II already elevated as Caesar — the GLORIA EXERCITVS type with two soldiers and a single standard having replaced the two-standard variant around 335, a deliberate reduction in design complexity to speed die production across all mints simultaneously.
