<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Al Kowsky, post: 4227290, member: 97383&quot;]I wish I could lay claim to the coin pictured below, but I can&#039;t <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. Never the less, it fits this thread perfectly that&#039;s why I&#039;m posting it <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />. This tiny bronze coin sold for <b>5,500</b> Swiss francs at the Nomos 19 Auction, despite the obvious cleaning marks. The reverse depicts the personal Vexillum of Constantine the Great, with 3 circular medallions crowned by a Chi-Rho symbol. The vexillum is mounted on a tall spear that is piercing a serpent-dragon (the symbol of Licinius I). </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1081555[/ATTACH] </p><p>Nomos Auction 19, Lot 358.
