| Reverse description | A camp gate rendered in frontal view, depicted with two turrets flanking a central arched gateway with a portcullis, a standard motif of late Roman imperial bronze coinage symbolizing military strength and imperial security. The gate is shown with multiple horizontal registers suggesting a multi-storey construction. The legend GLORIA REI-PVBLICAE is split across the upper field, with the officina mark A visible in the left field and the mintmark TES in the exergue, identifying this piece as a product of the Thessalonica mint. The reverse type follows the standardized Gloria Reipublicae series common to the reigns of Valentinian II, Theodosius I, and Arcadius. |
