<p>[QUOTE="Gavin Richardson, post: 3129290, member: 83956"]As many know, the SOLI INVICTO with the cross in the left field was struck only at Ticinum. <i>If </i>the cross is a Christian cross, it would be the first Christian image on a Roman circulating coin (as opposed to a medallion). I like the juxtaposition of the cross and the sun god, showing the evolving religious culture of the Empire under Constantine. Of course, the cross may be a simple control mark.[ATTACH=full]798022[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
