Really nice Siliqua @Magnus Maximus ! There is my favourite Constantius II:

 

@Valentinianvs I can see why it's your favourite! That is a stunning coin you have there, cherish it!

 

@Valentinianvs that is a stunning coin.
@Magnus Maximus excellent write up. If memory serves, Constantine waited until the last minute to be baptised so that he could be absolved of all his sins and walk straight through those Pearly Gates.
One of my favourite Constantius IIs

 

LOL, yeah, isn't that tidbit amazing? hmmmmmmm.....

 

Yep, you are correct! I wonder what the Arian priest was thinking when he baptized Constantine?! He had to be sweating like crazy!

 

LOL, or knowing that he was dying, laughing his As off!

 

That can't be good for your health!

 

I'm embarrassed to say I don't know! The gent who is the ancients expert. If I got his name before, I don't remember. Good guy though. Sadly I don't get in there enough...

 

@FitzNigel : Carolina Coin. Skip Morris. Great shop.

 

Surprised that @SIliquae hasn't posted anything here yet? He has three or four coins of the OP type.

 

this RIC102 is very interresting to study, with a important number of officina (11).

An absolutely stunning group of Siliqua, Siliquae!
