The two captives FTR was most likely issued to celebrate the victory of the Roman Army under the command of Constantius II at the Battle of Singara, which occurred in A. D. 344. The Roman Empire claimed to have defeated the Sassanid Army led by Shapur II, but in reality the Persians broke off the siege, as Shapur II probably realized his forces were spread too thin.
