| Beschrijving keerzijde | At the center of the reverse, the votive inscription VOT / XX is displayed in two lines within a laurel wreath, commemorating the twentieth vow renewal (vota vicennalia) of Licinius I. The wreath is rendered with carefully detailed leaves tied at the base. The surrounding circular legend DOMINI • N • LICINI AVG runs along the upper and lateral fields, while the mintmark AQS appears in the exergue, denoting the Aquileia mint, second officina (S = secunda). This reverse type is consistent with the imperial votive coinage series struck at Aquileia under RIC VII. |

By 320–321, the uneasy peace between Licinius and Constantine was disintegrating. Licinius had begun purging Christians from his court and army — a direct provocation given Constantine's alignment with the church — and both emperors were maneuvering toward the final confrontation that would come at Chrysopolis in 324. The Aquileia mint, firmly within Constantine's Italian territory, was issuing coinage in Licinius's name as a diplomatic formality that fooled no one.
RIC VII 67 is among the last issues bearing Licinius's titles from this mint before the relationship collapsed entirely.
