<p>[QUOTE="Roman Collector, post: 3174939, member: 75937"]I have a few of these VRBS ROMA types of Constantine and was looking on Amazon to see if there has been a monograph written about them. I was able to find a book with Vrbs Roma in the title, but I don't think it's about coins. I think it's about the city of Rome itself.
