EF, dark brown patina. Scarce! Obverse a little lightly struck. 718163. Following the overthrow and death of Constans early in 350 AD his successor, the usurper Magnentius, was prevented from extending his rule any further east than Italy by the elevation of a rival emperor, the elderly general Vetranio, by the army of Illyricum (March 1). Throughout his brief rule Vetranio steadfastly maintained that he was acting solely in the interests of the ruling dynasty and that he had no personal imperial ambitions. The truth of this claim was ultimately proven by his abdication in the presence of the eastern emperor Constantius II after a reign of less than ten months (December 25). The ex-emperor then retired from public life and lived out his remaining years on an estate at Prusa in Bithynia granted to him by the grateful Constantius. The coinage of Vetranio was all produced at the Balkan mints of Siscia and Thessalonica and substantial issues were made in the name of his eastern ‘colleague’ Constantius.
