<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tejas, post: 3979381, member: 84905&quot;]I wonder how much leeway the die engravers had. I suppose the headgear of the emperor and the caesars had kind of constitutional meaning. It looks like the laurel wreath was the standard head gear for caesars, while the augustus was more likely to be adorned with diadems. I found this coin in my collection, which shows a rather prominent pearl ribbon or diadem for Constantine I. The coin is from the mint of Arelate (Arles). Maybe the diadem design was specific to certain mints.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1047494[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
