    I really like this first issue at Sirmium for Valentinian I from early 364, that continues both the votive type of Julian and Jovian and the large flan AE3 (20-21mm) centenionalis introduced by Julian in 362. This type is so early and short-lived that it wasn't even minted for Valens, who was elevated as co-Augustus by his brother on March 28 364.
