    I real love Valentinian's website and especially the the recent additions on the Tetrachic coinage (as this I collect Constantius and Constantine). Very inspiring! @Valentinian: I hope you keep adding to the website!

    That's a beauty and a rare one! Constantine from a far eastern mint and the "BONO" type. That type is almost always for Maximinus II. Having it for Constantine is really special.
