<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Herberto, post: 8302057, member: 74222&quot;]I just have a question that is bothering me.</p><p><br /></p><p>As you all know Arcadius was crowned as co-emperor in 383. But he was not a sole emperor in the Eastern Roman/Byzantine Empire until his father Theodosius I died in 395.</p><p><br /></p><p>From 395 when the father passed on, Arcadius thus became the sole emperor in the eastern part.</p><p><br /></p><p>Now as you know there are a lot of coins struck where the legends on the obverse even say &quot;Our Lord Arcadius, lucky and pius, emperor&quot;. </p><p><br /></p><p>I want to ask: Are all the coins where the only name of Arcadius appear struck only AFTER 395 when he became the sole emperor? Or were the coins of Arcadius also struck BEFORE during Theodosius I&#039;s life?</p><p><br /></p><p>I dont know if there is a definitive answer to that question, but in case there is, then I would be glad to have it confirmed.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thank you very much[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
