095/1a VictoriatusAnonymous. 211-208B.C. AR Victoriatus. Uncertain Mint. (2.74g, 16mm, 12h). Obv: Laureate head of Jupiter right. Rev: Victory standing right, crowing trophy; VB monogram between. Crawford 95/1a. Sydenham 113, RSC 36m.

An interesting denomination, he Victoriatus circulated at the same time as the denarius but was made of debased silver and could have been valued at ¾ a denarius. It was hoarded separately from denarii, and could have been used for trade in southern Italy among the Greek colonies. It was later remade into the Quninarri keeping the victory motif from the old Victoriatus.

RIC VII 238 Siscia mint,

The coin is the only type using the genitive inflection in the legends FLavii CONSTANTIS BEAtissimus Caesaris or "of Flavius Constans, most blessed Caesar". This is common in Greek coins but otherwise unknown in Roman coins. All others are given in the nominative or occasionally the dative case eg. "divo constantino" (per Gert). Constans was only 10-13 years of age when the coin was issued.
Constans' father had established Christianity in Rome and his grandmother Helena was a Saint (or religious fanatic, if you prefer). Additionally Constantine had other older sons who might succeed him. Though it is only a guess I think that the young Constans expressed a desire to join the church rather than compete for imperial power and thus inspired this coin.

Provenance: Roma Numismatics E-Sale 44, March, 2018

Comments: Anonymous denarius, with peaked visor. Not in Crawford. In the style of the Sicilian series represented by Cr. 72 - 78. The peaked visor places this probably somewhere between Cr. 76 (obverse Branch symbol with splayed visor) and Cr. 77 (Corn-ear and crooked staff with Peaked visor). Unlike the other peaked visor varieties of this series, the visor is rendered as 3 lines of increasing length with no body in between. The lowest line extends to a peak. Visible and prominent hair binding. Excessively rare, three known examples, all from the same two dies.

Some reverse corrosion, otherwise VF.
