The emperor wears a pearl diadem and a paludamentum fastened at the shoulder, with visible cuirass detailing beneath. The encircling legend reads D N CONSTANTIVS P F AVG in Latin characters. The portrait displays the characteristic elongated facial features typical of mid-fourth century Roman coinage. The flan is slightly irregular, with moderate wear and patination consistent with a circulated bronze issue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The SPES REIPVBLICE type — "Hope of the Republic" — was introduced in the early 350s as Constantius II moved to consolidate sole rule following the suppression of the Magnentius usurpation. Heraclea was among the most active mints in the eastern empire during this consolidation, and the RIC VIII 98 specifically belongs to the final phase of Constantius's reign, produced in the years when the emperor was preoccupied first with the Persian frontier and then with the rising threat of his cousin Julian in the west. Constantius died in 361 before the two could meet in battle.
