[QUOTE="Herberto, post: 2284692, member: 74222"]After the death of Constantine the Great the Roman Empire was divided between his 3 sons and 1 nephew illustrated below here: [ATTACH=full]457266[/ATTACH] However my follis of Constantine II is minted in Siscia in Balkan in which he never ruled over nor conquered: [ATTACH=full]457267[/ATTACH] So was it the norm that follis were minted criss-cross of the Roman Empire despite of various rulers? And how about precious metal? Because my siliqua of Constantius II is minted in Arelate. Does that mean that the coin was struck AFTER he became sole emperor as he initially did not have France? Or were precious metal also struck criss-cross? [ATTACH=full]457269[/ATTACH] Constantius II, Arelate. 3,00g and 19mm Thank you for any help you can provide.[/QUOTE]
