| Reverse description | The emperor Valentinian I is depicted in full military dress, striding vigorously to the right with head turned back to the left, holding an upright labarum (Chi-Rho standard) in his right hand while dragging a crouching captive by the hair with his left. The officina mark Q appears in the left field, and the control mark K over P (K/P) is placed in the right field. The reverse legend GLORIA ROMANORVM encircles the scene, proclaiming the glory of the Romans. The exergue contains the Siscia mintmark, typically rendered as BSISCV for the second officina. The composition is vigorous and characteristic of the propagandistic military imagery favored under the Valentinianic dynasty. |
