| 背面描述 | Two enthroned figures of Roma and Constantinopolis seated facing one another, each helmeted and wearing military attire, jointly supporting between them a shield inscribed with the votive legend VOT XX MVLT XXX. Roma, at left, holds a scepter, while Constantinopolis, at right, rests her foot upon a ship's prow. A small Victory figure appears at the base between the two seated personifications. The reverse legend GLORIA - REI - PVBLICAE runs around the field, with the mint mark SMNS in the exergue, denoting the second officina of the Nicomedia mint. |

Constans ruled the western half of the empire after the death of Constantine I in 337, but his reign was cut short in January 350 when the usurper Magnentius orchestrated a coup during a hunting party in Gaul — Constans was reportedly caught fleeing and killed near the Pyrenees. This solidus, struck at Nicomedia in the eastern portion of his brother Constantius II's territory, reflects the uneasy power-sharing arrangement between the two emperors that defined the decade following Constantine's death.
Nicomedia was one of the premier mints of the eastern empire, a legacy of Diocletian who had made the city his preferred capital.
