| Reversbeschreibung | A winged Victory stands facing, holding a long jeweled cross in her right hand and a globus cruciger in her left, rendered in the hieratic style of late Roman imperial coinage. A star appears in the right field, reinforcing the divine and celestial associations of the Victory type. The circumferential Latin legend VICTORIA-AVGVSTORVM proclaims the victory of the Augusti, while the exergual inscription CONOB identifies the mint as Constantinople and certifies the gold as of standard fineness. The design is enclosed within a dotted border, and the overall composition reflects the transition from classical to Byzantine artistic conventions. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Theodosius II ruled the Eastern Empire for 42 years — the longest reign of any emperor in the dynasty — yet his administration was defined less by military ambition than by bureaucratic consolidation and the codification of Roman law completed in 438. The tremissis as a denomination had been regularized under Valentinian I and became the workhorse of long-distance commercial transactions across the late antique Mediterranean, its gold purity reliable enough to circulate well beyond imperial frontiers into Persian and Gothic territory.
Constantinople's mint by this period was the dominant producer of Eastern gold, with strict weight standards enforced through the comes sacrarum largitionum.
