                                Description

     Coin was minted at Constantinople circa 330 AD, during the reign
     of Constantine the Great. The obverse features the laureate and
     draped bust of the Roman People facing left, with cornucopiae
     over shoulder, and legends POP.ROMANVS. The reverse features a
     large star within wreath, with mint/oficina mark CONSS below. RIC
     classifies these pieces as special donative half-centionales
     celebrating the dedication of the city of Constantinople. Their
     silver content is said to be twice that of contemporary
     Constantinian billon coinage. Coin grades a nice VF, with bold
     devices and legends, and attractive earthen patina. A pleasing
     example of this scarce donative type, catalouged as RIC-22. All
     coins guaranteed genuine without limitations. Buyer pays
     postage/insurance, coin shipped on clearance of funds. PA
     residents please add appropriate sales tax. Visa/MC accepted for
     purchases of $20 or more. Member ANA, PAN. For more ancients,
