Beneath his feet lies a prostrate captive enemy figure, symbolizing Roman military virtue and imperial conquest. The composition is enclosed within a beaded border, with the reverse legend distributed around the upper and lateral fields. The exergue bears the Aquileia mint mark AQS, denoting the second officina. The overall design conveys the Tetrarchic ideology of collective imperial Virtus. |
