Germanic Tribes, Pseudo-Imperial Coinage, Mid 4th - Early 5th Century A.D.
|Germanic| |Tribes|, |Germanic| |Tribes,| |Pseudo-Imperial| |Coinage,| |Mid| |4th| |-| |Early| |5th| |Century| |A.D.|, This type was minted by and used as currency by tribes outside the Roman Empire. It copied a Roman type issued by the London mint under Constantine the Great. Imitative coins of this type range from very similar to the Roman prototypes to bizarrely blundered legends, nearly abstract portraits, and reverses that are difficult to recognize. This style on this coin is a little crude but close to that of the official Roman prototype.
