| Obverse description | Bust of Flavius Julius Dalmatius, Caesar, facing right, depicted as a young prince wearing a rosette-diademed and cuirassed bust with a draped paludamentum over the left shoulder. The circumferential Latin legend reads FL IVL DELMATIVS NOB C, identifying him as a nobleman of Caesar rank. The portrait is rendered in the late Constantinian court style, characteristic of the workshop at Cyzicus during the mid-330s AD. |

Between them stands a single legionary standard on a pole, decorated with a wreath and circular medallions. The reverse legend GLOR-IA EXERC-ITVS, meaning 'Glory of the Army', is distributed in the field to either side of the standards. The mint mark SMKA appears in the exergue, denoting the first officina of the Cyzicus mint. |
