| 表面の説明 | Right-facing bust of the usurper Procopius, rendered as a draped and cuirassed effigy adorned with a pearl diadem, the strands of which are clearly articulated. The portrait displays characteristic late Roman imperial styling with short curled hair and a bearded visage, conveying an air of legitimacy despite Procopius's brief and contested reign. The cuirass is detailed with decorative fibula at the shoulder, and the drapery falls naturally across the chest. The Latin legend D N PROCO-PIVS P F AVG encircles the bust, proclaiming him Dominus Noster — Our Lord and Emperor. The flan shows typical late antique irregular shaping with evident die wear consistent with a short-lived emergency issue. |

Procopius seized power in Constantinople on September 28, 365, exploiting the absence of both emperors — Valentinian I was on the Rhine, Valens was in Cappadocia — and his own tenuous blood connection to Julian's family as his sole claim to legitimacy. The Cyzicus mint, geographically within his controlled territory, struck coins for him throughout the usurpation. His reign lasted less than eight months before Valens crushed him at Thyatira in May 366; Procopius was beheaded shortly after.
The REPARATIO FEL TEMP type was already an established reverse for the legitimate Valentinianic dynasty, making Procopius's adoption of it a deliberate act of political mimicry rather than independent iconographic choice.
