| Beschrijving keerzijde | The personification of Carthage stands facing, head turned to the left, clad in a long flowing robe, her outstretched hands holding fruits — a standard allegorical representation of the city's abundance. The control letter H appears in the left field, while the mintmark Γ is placed in the exergue, indicating the third officina of the Carthage mint. The reverse legend arcs around the design within a beaded border, celebrating the felicity of Carthage under the Tetrarchic Augusti and Caesares. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Severus II was elevated to Caesar under the Tetrarchic system in 305 AD, immediately after Diocletian and Maximian's joint abdication — one of the very few planned successions in Roman imperial history. This Carthage mint issue dates to the brief window before the system collapsed entirely, when Constantius I died at York in 306 and his troops proclaimed Constantine emperor, fracturing the carefully engineered succession. Severus himself would be dead by 307, forced to surrender at Ravenna and later executed.
The Carthage mint operated with notably inconsistent flan preparation during this period, accounting for the weight variation frequently observed across RIC VI#40 specimens.
