Photos of a clay mold of reverse / reverse coming from: http://esty.ancients.info/numis/molds.html.

The diameter is around 29.00 mm and the thickness around 4.00 mm, according to information given by Warren Esty and Rick Pope. They give for this mold two uncertain marks: ANA? and SMN? We seem to distinguish no in the left field. One break of the legend on the reverse is illegible but seems to be similar to that of the other reverse, namely: FEL TEMP RE - PARATIO. This mold is part of a set of 11 molds studied by these same people. Here is the list of these molds:

- Three copies: obverse Constantius II / reverse FEL TEMP REPARATIO (fallen horseman).

- Two copies: obverse Constantius II / reverse FEL TEMP REPARATIO (galley).

- Two copies: obverse Constans / reverse FEL TEMP REPARATIO (fallen horseman).

- Two copies: obverse smooth / reverse FEL TEMP REPARATIO (fallen horseman).

- One copy: reverse FEL TEMP REPARATIO (fallen horseman) / reverse FEL TEMP REPARATIO (fallen horseman). This copy illustrated here.

- One copy: obverse Constantius II / obverse Constantius II.
