| Reverse description | Two Victories standing facing one another, each holding a wreath and together supporting a large palm frond between them; below, a small letter D in the lower field serves as a control mark. The scene commemorates the Victories of the joint Augusti and celebrates imperial military success in the traditional Roman allegorical manner. The encircling legend VICTORIAE DD AVGG Q NN surrounds the central type, and the mint mark in the exergue identifies the Treveri workshop. The reverse surface shows heavy wear and corrosion consistent with prolonged circulation, though the central device and legend remain partially legible. |

| Additional information |
The VICTORIAE DD AVGG Q NN coinage belongs to a carefully coordinated empire-wide issue celebrating the twentieth year of Constantine II, Constans, and Constantius II's joint rule — the vicennalia propaganda push of 347–348. Treveri, long one of the western empire's premier mints, produced this D officina piece as part of that synchronized output across multiple workshops simultaneously. The formula itself, invoking victories of "our two Augusti," pointedly excludes any third emperor, a quiet reflection of the political consolidation following Constans's elimination of Constantine II at Aquileia in 340.
