[QUOTE="Beginner345, post: 3220592, member: 96725"]100% real. it would cost more than a buck to fake that authentic look. nearly all coins from the constantinian dynasty are nice for a new collector... but most people feel they aren't worth much. Keep in mind- they were the longest dynasty of the Roman and Byzantine Empire Constantine had a lot of sons and several of them were either Augustus' or Caesars( corulers with the father or other brothers).. They had many many years to put out TONS of bronze coins with their face. They are not rare at all. They are so numerous that people used to use them as ships ballast. Most of the sons coins look the same except for a few minor details the revere is usually a falling horseman or dragging captive. still its a piece of history- a 1700 year old coin- enjoy it! I keep mine- They are still nice[/QUOTE]
