| Beschrijving voorzijde | Front-facing bust of Empress Licinia Eudoxia rendered in the hieratic late antique style, depicted wearing the trabea crossed over the stola, a pearl necklace, and a diadem of pearls surmounted by a central gem. The effigy is presented full-face, a convention characteristic of fifth-century imperial female portraiture. The surrounding Latin legend reads LICINIA EVD - OXIA P F AVG, identifying the empress with her titles Pia Felix Augusta. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Licinia Eudoxia occupied a uniquely catastrophic position in late Roman dynastic politics — daughter of Theodosius II, wife of Valentinian III, and a direct instrument of the Vandal sack of Rome in 455. Following Valentinian's murder, the new emperor Petronius Maximus compelled her into marriage; she reportedly appealed to Geiseric, whose subsequent landing and two-week plunder of Rome ended the very regime that struck this coin. Issues of her name from the Rome mint in 455 are among the rarest of the Western series, produced in the months immediately preceding that collapse.
