<p>[QUOTE="medoraman, post: 5433437, member: 26302"]Just so you know, most Roman coins by Constantine's time were bronze. Silver is pretty rare. Constantine and his sons are very common though. Lots of coins with ChiRo, the earliest sign of Christianity. The cross would not be the main sign until later, like in the Byzantine period. I like the "hand to God" coins, where you literally see the hand of God coming down from the clouds to bring Constantine to heaven. Search around, they are not very expensive. With all late Romans, be picky and get a good one. There are MILLIONS of them around.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
