<p>[QUOTE=&quot;johnmilton, post: 5301764, member: 101855&quot;]I should identify the Roman coin I posted. It is a follis of Constantius I. He was a Caesar under the emperor Maximianus who ruled the Western empire from 286 to 305. The Eastern emperor was Diocletian who ruled from 284 to 305. </p><p><br /></p><p>Diocletian decided to retire in 305 and asked a reluctant Maximianus to leave with him. Constantius became the Western empire emperor, but it didn’t last long. He died less than two years later while he was campaigning in Britain against the barbarians. His son, Constantine, seemed be in-line to be next, but things got complicated. Ultimately Constantine won out and is now know as Constantine the Great.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
