<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Valentinian, post: 3298257, member: 44316&quot;][USER=99716]@Jochen[/USER] , that is an impressive article! There is more to ancient coins than just a disc of metal--each has a story. However, not every story is easy to extract from the sources, and many stories will remain untold for lack of sufficient original sources. But the large chi-rho type is the first type (as opposed to small symbol) that is obviously Christian and, as such, its story is important. We may never know precisely why the type of Magnentius and Decentius was issued with a legend for a single emperor and the obverse of Constantius II.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]873174[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>23 mm. 6.86 grams.</p><p>SALVS AVG NOSTRI</p><p>RIC Trier 335.</p><p><br /></p><p>I don&#039;t know that I have ever seen one with full flan with all the legend on the flan.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
