Commentary


Poids léger. Avec l’intégralité de son argenture superficielle. Beau portrait de Crispus. Joli revers avec de petites faiblesses de frappe sur la légende. Patine grise avec des reflets dorés. Conserve l’intégralité de son brillant de frappe et de son coupant d’origine.

Historical background


CRISPUS

(1/04/317-09/326)

Caesar

Crispus is the son of Constantine and Minervine. Born around 300, he was named Caesar in 317 with Constantine II and Licinius II. Rightly or wrongly, he is accused by his stepmother of wanting to abuse her. Faced with these accusations, Constantine had his eldest son put to death in early 326.
