RIC -. Apparently unique and of great historical interest. Struck from a somewhat worn obverse die and with some weakness on the reverse, otherwise, about very fine. From the collection of Dr. L. Ramskold, ex Rauch 101, 19 April 2016, 1727. The 'AVGGG' series was very short-lived, celebrating the unity of the three emperors Constantine I, Licinius I, and Maximinus II. RIC VI knew of two examples from Rome and a single coin from Ostia. Still today, only one or two examples per type are known. Starting price: 75 CHF |  |
