Excellent Iovianus
« on: December 12, 2023, 07:35:48 am »
Well, usually late Roman coins are not exactly my area of collection. But I simply could not resist its beauty.

So we have a double maiorina from Iovianus (363-364) from Constantinopolis, RIC 176.

Obv. DN IOVIANVS P F AVG, laurel-and-rosette-diademed, draped and cuirassed bust of Jovian to right as seen from the front.

Rev: VICTORIA ROMANORVM // CONSPĪ“, the emperor, in military attire, standing frontal, head to right, holding labarum in his right hand and Victory on globe in his left hand.
