| Reverse description | The emperor is depicted on horseback, advancing to the right with his right hand raised in a gesture of salutation or command, rendered in the propagandistic military style characteristic of late Roman imperial coinage. The horse is shown in a walking pose, conveying imperial authority and martial prowess. The encircling legend GLORIA ROMANORVM proclaims the glory of Rome, while the mint mark ANTA in the exergue identifies the first officina of the Antioch mint. The overall composition reflects the standard Gloria Romanorum type issued across multiple eastern mints during the final years of Theodosius I's reign. |
