On the reverse I noted ''Angel'' in the description. We can also say that this is Victoria but the image of the victory at that time had indeed become that of an angel symbolizing the Christian victory. I note that this character is probably also a representation of the Empress in the guise of the angel. Indeed, the character often wears the same double pearl diadem and the clothes are decorated like those of Aelia Zenonis. I have noticed many times that on the coinage of various Empresses the character on the reverse is depicted as the Empress.
The officina letter noted on the right on the mark, is placed after AVGGG
