<p>[QUOTE=&quot;maridvnvm, post: 1687620, member: 31620&quot;]I had decided to stop getting distracted by LRB and to save up for a big Greek silver coin. I have failed miserably. I saw this coin and bought it along with another couple of Lugdunum coins. Ho Hum. Another hole in my budget.</p><p><br /></p><p>Constantinian Period City Commemorative</p><p><br /></p><p>Obv:-- CONSTANTINOPOLIS, Helmeted and laureate Constantinopolis bust left</p><p>Rev:-- --, Victory standing left on prow of a galley, holding transverse spear across her body and shield</p><p>Minted in Lugdunum. dot in Crescent PLG in exe. A.D. 330 - 333</p><p>Reference:-- RIC Lugdunum 256 (R1). Bastien Vol. XIII 222.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH]254268.vB[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>I thought the bust to be most striking, being somehow enhanced by the&nbsp; flowlines radiating outwards. The reverse is also well executed. The&nbsp; whole coin benefiting from a decent strike and little wear.</p><p><br /></p><p>Martin[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
