[QUOTE="Victor_Clark, post: 4185557, member: 10613"][ATTACH=full]1075712[/ATTACH] I was pretty happy to recently acquire this coin of Constantine I. It is not listed in RIC and it is actually fairly rare. I had and then sold another example about 12 years ago on Vauctions that is an obverse die match with this one and always regretted selling it a bit, but this one is in much better condition. RIC does not list bust type H6 for any of the VLPP’s; but, with the obverse legend, it should come after Siscia 53 Constantine I A.D. 318-19 19mm 2.9g IMP CONSTANTINVS P F AVG; laureate helmet and cuirassed bust right with spear across right shoulder and shield/ buckler on left. VICTORIAE LAETAE PRINC PERP; two Victories stg., facing one another, together holding shield (wreath) inscribed VOT PR on altar.[/QUOTE]
