<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Gallienus, post: 3719294, member: 42034&quot;]Thanks very much Al.&nbsp; Also the page was misspelled so I corrected that as well as putting a menu item to the Tet<b><span style="color: #b30000">r</span></b>archy page on my homepage.</p><p>The corrected link is:</p><p><a href="https://coinsandhistory.com/countries/Ancients_Rome/Ancients_48_Rome_Empire_Tetrarchy-Constantine.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://coinsandhistory.com/countries/Ancients_Rome/Ancients_48_Rome_Empire_Tetrarchy-Constantine.html" rel="nofollow">https://coinsandhistory.com/countries/Ancients_Rome/Ancients_48_Rome_Empire_Tetrarchy-Constantine.html</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Slabbing to protect coins is often a good idea.&nbsp; I try to use silica gel packets &amp; such in my safety deposit box but may look into a small moisture, and temperature recorder like some museums use.</p><p><br /></p><p>The Constantine coin was purchased because I do a talk for 6th grade classes at my local high school on &quot;Ancient History as Shown by Coins&quot;. The 6th grade curricula includes &quot;Rome &amp; the beginnings of Christianity&quot;.&nbsp; I&#039;ve been using my milarense of Constantine II as a poor substitute but when I saw the nice nummus of Constantine I, I bought it for that reason.</p><p><br /></p><p>I guess these large? nummi degenerated into the smaller bronze and orichalum pieces we see identified only as AE3&#039;s by the mid 4th century?</p><p><br /></p><p>Another late item I like are the siliqua of latter Rome (of which I also have exactly 2).&nbsp; More expensive than the nummi but even rarer ones seem to be generally affordable.&nbsp; I think even Julius Nepos issued siliqua.</p><p><br /></p><p><i><font size="4">Finally I got my 301 redirect to work so that &quot;All roads lead to Rome&quot; i.e. all posted links lead to the correct page.&nbsp; To clarify, since I&#039;m not using WordPress, but HTML, I work directly on a webpage with a name.&nbsp; It has a lot more flexibility/power than WordPress but you have to be precise with links &amp; page names.</font></i>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
