| Reverse description | The sun god Sol stands facing left in the field, depicted as radiate with a chlamys draped across his left shoulder, leaving the upper body bare. His right hand is raised in a gesture of benediction or salutation, while his left hand holds a globe symbolising universal dominion. The legend is divided across the fields flanking the figure, with the officina letter and mintmark appearing in the exergue. The reverse type reflects the widespread Constantinian-era veneration of Sol Invictus as divine companion to the emperor. |
