| Reverse description | Constantinopolis personified is depicted seated facing, with her head turned slightly to the right, enthroned in regal posture and holding a long sceptre in her left hand and a globus cruciger surmounted by a cross in her right. The reverse exhibits several distinct variants: BCV#346 adds a star in the left field; BCV#347 places a cross in the left field; BCV#348 features the letter C in the left field. The exergue bears the standard mint control mark CONOB, denoting refined gold struck at Constantinople, while an officina letter appears above the exergue line. The Latin legend VICTORIA AVGGG encircles the design, proclaiming the victory of the Augusti. |
