Constantine II, as Caesar, 316-337. Follis (Bronze, 18 mm, 2.30 g, 12 h), Antiochia, July 326. Laureate, draped and cuirassed bust of Constantine II to left. Rev. CONSTAN/TINVS / CAESAR / SMANTΔ in four lines; above, star; below, pellet. RIC 59. An very attractive example with an unusually detailed bust struck from fresh dies on good metal. Light deposits, otherwise, extremely fine.


The officinae striking for Constantine Caesar were A, B, Γ, Δ, Є, and H, although not all at the same time. Of these, officina Γ struck only for a short time and was unknown to Bruun (and therefore absent in RIC VII).
