[QUOTE="Heliodromus, post: 7876420, member: 120820"]I assume he was dead, or as good as! Maxentius seems to have initially hoped that Galerius (who was his father-in-law after all) might have OK'd his power grab as he did Constantine's, so he would initially have had no reason to exclude either. By the time Maxentius issued this type (RIC 50-51), with Constantine now included, it seems Severus II's failed attempt to oust him had probably occured, and Galerius therefore also excluded. Galerius CAES was part of the 1st tetrarchy (RIC 33-34), when all was well and Carthage was under control of Maximianus. I have a bit more verbose description of the lineup changes on this FORVM NumisWiki page, which was based on a post over there that I prepared the graphic for.
