Constantine II, as Caesar, 316-337. Follis (Bronze, 18 mm, 2.00 g, 4 h), Antiochia, July 325 (?). Laureate, draped and cuirassed bust of Constantine II to left. Rev. CONSTAN/TINVS / CAESAR / SMANTS in four lines; above, star. RIC 54. Struck from a somewhat worn obverse die and with a flan crack, otherwise, very fine.


Bruun misread many officina letters of the dynastic bronze emissions from Antioch. In fact, it were officinae A and S that struck for the Caesars Constantine and Constantius, with no other officinae represented. For Constantine Caesar, there are presently 9 examples known of officina A and 75 of officina S.
