Obverse description Veiled bust of Divus Constantius I facing right, depicted as a deified emperor with a distinctive flowing veil draped over the head and shoulders, a hallmark of posthumous consecratio portraiture. The facial features are rendered in a late Roman style with a strong profile, prominent nose, and short beard. The surrounding Latin legend reads DIVO CONSTANTIO AVG, identifying the subject as the divine Augustus Constantius. The beaded border frames the design on the coin's periphery. The veiled effigy distinguishes this issue as a commemorative piece struck under Maxentius to honor his deified predecessor.
