Rubans de type 3. Les ptéryges sont invisibles sous le paludamentum. Au revers les lettres dans le champ T|F pourraient être les initiales de “Temporum Felicitas” pour les temps heureux. Nous n’avons pas noté de liaison de coin pertinente. C’est le onzième exemplaire publié. Prendra le numéro 569f dans le Supplément III du Bastien avec l’indication d’une nouvelle césure pour le revers avec MARTI CO-NSERVATORI.

Will take the number 569f in Supplement III of Bastian with the indication of a new caesura for the reverse with MARTI CO-NSERVATORI

Historical background


CONSTANTINE I THE GREAT

(07/25/306-05/22/337)

Augustus

Constantine was born in 274, son of Constance Chlore and Helena. He was named Caesar on the death of his father on July 25, 306 and was proclaimed august on December 25, 307. He married Fausta, the daughter of Maximien Hercule, who gave him five children, three of whom were augusts. The first twenty years of his reign are devoted to imposing himself as the main august against Maximian Hercules, Galerius, Maxentius, Maximin II and Licinius. He is recognized as the first Christian emperor, although baptized only on his deathbed on May 22, 337.
