Constantine I, 307/310-337. Follis (Bronze, 20 mm, 2.87 g, 6 h), a contemporary imitation of an issue from Treveri. Irregular mint, after 321. CONSTANTINVS AVG Laureate head of Constantine I to right. Rev. BEATA TRANQVILLCAS / STR Globe set on altar inscribed VO/TIS / XX; above, three stars. Cf. RIC 317 (for prototype). Struck from a slightly worn obverse die, otherwise, nearly extremely fine.



The style of this coin could pass for official were it not for the slightly odd portrait and the blundered reverse legend. These features show that this is a well made 'barbarous' imitation of Trier RIC 317.
