| Reverse description | Two helmeted, draped, and cuirassed soldiers stand facing one another in a symmetrical composition, each raising a spear in the outer hand while resting the inner hand on a grounded shield. Between them rise two legionary standards, their vexilla prominently displayed as symbols of military power and imperial unity. The Latin legend GLORIA EXERCITVS is divided across the field in two segments flanking the central device. The exergue contains a dot followed by the mint and officina mark, identifying production at the Cyzicus mint. This reverse type was widely employed across multiple mints during the reigns of Constantine I's sons and is closely associated with Constantinian dynastic propaganda. |
