    The next one is the She wolf commemorative coin minted by Constantine the great. Minted in Constantinople E539D91A-DA0C-4A78-981A-549A94632F6D.jpeg 98370206-7FE2-418A-BEDF-3678207DD7DB.jpeg

    Your coin is from Trier and your mintmark is TRP✶

    Oh really? I knew they minted these in Trier too but I wasn’t sure if there’s a mint mark.

    Looks like Faustina II from both the hairstyle and the obverse legend. Nice pickup.

    Thank you Deacon Ray! Oh to let you know thank you so much for those coins you sent last year. The constans folis fits very nicely into my Silk Road section of the collection (he established diplomatic relations with the Tang Dynasty)
