[QUOTE="Valentinian, post: 2725533, member: 44316"]Almost four years ago I wrote a web site [url]http://augustuscoins.com/ed/interesting/SECVRITAS.html[/url] on the meaning of SECVRITAS, a common term on Roman coins. Today I added this coin to the site: [ATTACH=full]618574[/ATTACH] Constantius I, 293-305-306 Struck as Caesar, c. 295 25-21 mm. An[I] aurelianus[/I], sometimes called an [I]antoninianus[/I]. SECVRITAS AVG, B in exergue. Securitas standing front, head left, with legs casually crossed, right hand up to the top of her head, and left elbow leaning on column. There is no tension in this pose. She is comfortable and se-cure (Read the site to see what that means.) RIC V.II 644, mint of Lugdunum, page 298.[/QUOTE]
