| Valentinian I, 25 February 364 - 17 November 375 A.D. |  |

|   | Probably this reverse die was in service under Jovian, the type being abundantly struck by Sirmium during his reign. However coins with a Valentinian obverse are rare since the mint was closed in the first year of the new regime. It was reopened 14 years later but only to strike in precious metal. |
