    It’s been awhile since I’ve posted an ancient but here’s a good one. If I am correct it was minted during the time of Constantine I in order to honor the city of Rome. The reverse has a she-wolf suckling Remus and Romulus.
    It’s a common coin with a very popular reverse. The coin is very well struck and in a somewhat higher grade.
