<p>[QUOTE=&quot;seth77, post: 2249238, member: 56653&quot;]This one here concludes this purportedly second dynastic issue from Rome in 329AD. It is perhaps the 8th spec I came across and because it was on auction at Pecunem from one of my favorite dealers, I couldn&#039;t let it pass me by. </p><p><br /></p><p><font size="5"><b> CONSTANTINE II AE3 18mm 2.07g Follis/Nummus (aVF, green patina)</b></font></p><p><font size="5"><b><br /></b></font></p><p>AV: Laureate, draped and cuirassed bust left.</p><p><br /></p><p>REV: CONSTAN / TINVS / IVN NOB C / SMRT; wreath above</p><p><br /></p><p>EXE: -</p><p><br /></p><p>REF: <b>RIC VII Rome 282, R2 close to real rarity, July 326AD (as per RIC VII) or early 329AD (as per L.

RIC records one of these from Rome at p. 329 RIC VII 283, a singular piece which I have not been able to locate nor see an image for.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]444805[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
