Title: Magnentius?
Post by: stupot on September 02, 2023, 04:05:17 PM

A friend found this bronze piece, presumably of Magnentius or his brother. However, I don't think i've seen a reverse of the Chi Rho in a wreath on any of his coins. Diameter is 2cm/.7"

Is this interesting??

Many thanks

Your picture didn't show up. If you did, don't preview before you post, as that is an issue sometimes.

This type shows up rarely as they are fairly scarce. They were minted in Arles for Magnentius.
