| Beschrijving keerzijde | Two helmeted soldiers stand facing one another in three-quarter view, each clad in military drapery and cuirass, holding an inverted spear in their outer hand while resting their inner hand upon a large round shield set at their feet. Between the two figures rises a single legionary standard bearing a letter in its field, symbolizing the unity and strength of the Roman army. The exergue contains the mintmark of the Treveri mint followed by the officina letter and a crescent, a characteristic mark of this issue. The reverse legend, divided by the standard, encircles the composition in crisp Latin capitals. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
By 340, the GLORIA EXERCITVS type had already been in production for over a decade, introduced under Constantine I around 330 as a unifying military propaganda issue across all western mints. At Trier — one of the most productive mints in the late empire — the two-soldier, two-standard variant was being phased down to a single standard, a reduction that broadly tracks the political fracturing following Constantine's death in 337, when his three surviving sons immediately began positioning against one another. Constantius II was consolidating control in the east while his brother Constantine II moved on Italy.
RIC VIII 108 places this squarely in the early post-division coinage at Trier.
