<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Heliodromus, post: 7715267, member: 120820&quot;]Nice coin! These London cross/star on altar types are tough to get in nice condition.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sticking with the Constantine theme, here&#039;s a 1/8 nummus fraction of Constantine as caesar, RIC VI Trier 746, issued to celebrate his 1st imperial anniversary on 7-25-307. It measures 14mm and weighs in at 1.3g.</p><p><br /></p><p>The reverse type is PLVR NATAL FEL, many happy birthdays, with his natalis imperiii being the birthday being celebrated. Not much to look at, but not a common type.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is ex. Dieter Alten collection, and is plate coin 6.14 from Carl-Friedrich Zschucke&#039;s &quot;Die Bronze-Teilstück-Prägungen der römischen Münzstätte Trier&quot;.</p><p><br /></p><p>Zschucke was Dieter Alten&#039;s friend and would later publish Alten&#039;s impressive Trier Beata Tranqvilitas collection, with his friend as posthumous co-author, and subsequently donated the collection to Berlin.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1323162[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1323164[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
