Constantine I. AD 307/310-337. Æ Follis (21mm, 2.90 g, 6h). Adventus type. Londinium (London) mint. Struck circa AD 314. Helmeted and cuirassed bust left, holding spear in right hand over right shoulder and shield on left arm / Constantine I riding left, right hand raised, holding spear in left; S|F//PLN. RIC VII 2; C&T 8.02.002. Dark green patina, some cleaning marks. Good VF. Extremely rare.

From the Paul DiMarzio Collection, purchased from Lee Toone (Hookmoor Ancient Coins), 29 December 2011.

From Lee Toone: “The BM (British Museum) has two examples, both poorer than this one. One is an obverse and reverse die match to this coin. I know of one other example, again an obverse and reverse match to this coin, so probably struck from very few dies.”
