Roman Empire - AE Follis of Licinius I (320AD)

$30.00

Offered is a pleasing bronze Follis, struck at Siscia under the reign of Licinius I in 320AD, RIC#110. This example bears the unusual ‘helmeted’ portrait, surrounded by inscription ‘IMP LICINIVS AVG,’ paired with the ‘VIRTVS EXERCIT’ reverse depicting captives flanking a Vexillum. It must be said that coins from the reign of Licinius are generally available in high grade, but this type seems to ‘max out’ at around the grade of the specimen currently offered. Good detail, and a pleasing original patina round out this very solid example.
