<p>[QUOTE="+VGO.DVCKS, post: 4963411, member: 110504"][USER=83956]@Gavin Richardson[/USER], it's an easy bet that for people who spend your amount of time with coins of Constantine, this won't be such a big deal. But from here, the moustache on your example is striking. Could the Antioch mint be a factor in that? It's easy to guess --along the lines other people here have mentioned for Roman provincials, more specifically for Syria (Vespasian in particular ...maybe?)-- that the die sinkers could be resorting to earlier designs, whether for Constantius Chlorus or from prototypes back to the Tetrarchy.
