            Estimate:  US$ 40

                  Reign Divus Constantine I, "The Great"
                  Denomination Posthumous commemorative AE4

                  Mint Antioch, 2nd officina.
                  Obverse DV CONSTANTI-NVS PT AVGG. Veiled head right.
                  Reverse No legend. The deified Constantine driving quadriga

                  Reference RIC VIII, 38; LRBC I,1372.

                  olive green patina.   
                  Comments Ex- CNG Triton IX, lot 2423 (part). It is ironic that 
                  Constantine,  who tradition tells us was the first Christian 
                  emperor, should have been honored with Pagan deification and 
                  commemorated posthumously with traditional pagan symbolism as 
                  found on this coin. He was the last emperor to be so honored.
