[QUOTE="Marsyas Mike, post: 8321576, member: 85693"]That is very interesting! Thank you for providing that information, [USER=120820]@Heliodromus[/USER] - I have updated my attribution accordingly and saved your post to my attribution files. The portrait is indeed rather un-Constantine-like, and I can see how that is more of a "Caesar" reverse type. Since I have a SARMATIA DEVICTA type from Trier, I'll share it here - with its much more plausible, Constantine-like bust: [ATTACH=full]1474118[/ATTACH] [B]Constantine I Æ 18 (323-324 A.D.) Trier mint[/B] CONSTANTINVS AVG laureate head right. / SARMATIA DEVICTA, Victory advancing right, holding trophy and palm branch, spurning captive on ground right, STR-crescent in ex. RIC VII Trier 435 S. (2.73 grams / 18 mm) eBay Aug. 2020[/QUOTE]
