So leaving the baptism until your deathbed increased your odds of salvation... as weird as that sounds. Added bonus of removing all of those sins these Emperor-types performed during their lifetime.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t yet own any posthumous coins of Constantine.. here is a coin of his I re-shot today while I was playing around with a new iPhone clip-on lens.</p><p><br /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1148984[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
