She founded a number of churches, including the church at the base of Mt. Sinai, pretty interesting historical figure.
here's my favorite constantine coin... here's a pretty good book about constantine you can get shipped to you house for about 10 bucks... https://www.amazon.com/CONSTANTINE-...ords=constantine+and+the+conversion+of+europe
My two favorite Constantines. I don't know why. Cyzicus mint, A.D. 311-312 RIC 89b (var., unlisted officina) Obv: IMP C FL VAL CONSTANTINVS P F AVG Rev: HERCVLI VICTORI - Hercules, leaning on club covered by lion skin MKV in exergue; Γ in left field 21 mm, 4.2 g. Ticinum mint, A.D. 312-313 RIC 133 Obv: CONSTANTINVS P F AVG Rev: SOLI INVI-C-TO COMITI - Sol, head facing forward, holding globe in left hand, raising right ST in exergue 20 mm, 3.8 g.
I used to own this, til it walked off with burglars a month later. Yes, I was pillaged by barbarians. The irony still leaves a bitter taste. Constantine I The Great AE3. Nicomedia Mint 330-335 AD. Obverse: CONSTANI-NVS MAX AVG, rosette diademed, draped and cuirassed bust right. Reverse: GLOR-IA EXERC-ITVS, two soldiers standing front, heads toward center, each holds reversed spear in outer hand and rests inner hand on shield, two standards between them, SMNB in exergue. RIC VII: 188. Size: 18.5mm, 2.45g. Numismatic Notes: EF with an amazing glossy-brown patina! Romae Aertenae Numismatics 10-21-12
Not one of the better looking pieces, but it brings to mind the period of chaos Constantine was still "Caesar" while the various Caesars of the 2nd tetrarchy began contesting with Maxentius. I have a Filius Augustorum follis somewhere, but as a relatively recent acquisition, I don't think I've imaged it for the website gallery yet - perhaps I'll try to hunt it up and shoot it later today. http://www.stoa.org/albums/album479/11_Constantine_I_Caes_Follis_306_7_CUS_ROM.sized.jpg
Ahh, It seems I spoke too soon - I do have an image of his Filius Augustorum (along with Maximinus II) issue: http://www.stoa.org/gallery/album162/L_01_ConstantineFilAugust?full=1
