<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Gavin Richardson, post: 24733609, member: 83956&quot;]So I’d like to resurrect this thread for a second time. I was pleased to see this scarce Constantine coin in the Aegean numismatics inventory and snatched it up.</p><p><br /></p><p>It was sold as coming from a London Ancient Coins auction.</p><p><br /></p><p>But when I consulted this thread to read up on the issue, lo and behold, it seems to be Glenn’s coin that appears earlier in this thread.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don’t know how active [USER=82549]@gsimonel[/USER] is on this board, but Glenn, if you’re listening, I’d be curious to know how it went from you to London Ancient Coins to Aegean in a fairly short period of time. I’m not suggesting anything nefarious here. I’m just curious about this coin’s journey. </p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry I don’t have anything more substantive to add to the discussion of the coin type. Maybe this is of interest: I think this is the only contemporary coin that references Constantine’s victory at the Battle of the Milvian Bridge— struck to honor the Gallic army that propelled Constantine to victory. The IN HOC VICTOR ERIS coin is struck much later. This coin is from 312 or 313.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1582219[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
