London - Constantine II (Flavius Claudius Constantinus)


constantine_II_ric_288.png

Constantine was born in 316 in Arles and on 1st March 317 he was given the title Caesar. So the first London coins on which he appears were issued when he was just one year old! At the age of 7 he took part in his father's campaign against the Sarmatians.

He became joint emperor with his brothers Constans and Constantius II when Constantine died in 337. He argued with Constans over the ownership of territory and was killed in an ambush by Constans' troops outside Aquelia in 340.

London - Constantius II


constantius_beat_1.png

Flavius Julius Constantius was born in August 317, the second son of Constantine and Fausta. He was given the title Caesar in 324 and was elevated to Augustus on the death of Constantine in 337, along with his brothers Constantine II and Constans. After the death of Constantine II (340) and Constans (350), he was sole ruler of the Roman Empire until his death in 361.

London - Crispus


crispus_virtus_behind.png

Flavius Julius Crispus was the eldest son of the Roman emperor Constantine I, as well as his junior colleague (caesar) from March 317 until his execution by his father in 326. Crispus ruled from Augusta Treverorum (Trier) in Roman Gaul between 318 and 323 and defeated the navy of Licinius I at the Battle of the Hellespont in 324, which, together with the land Battle of Chrysopolis won by Constantine forced the resignation of Licinius and his son, leaving Constantine the sole augustus and the Constantinian dynasty in control of the entire empire.
However, after a trial whose circumstances remain mysterious, Constantine executed Crispus at Pola (Pula) in 326. Fausta, whose son Constantius II became caesar in November 324, was also put to death, and the Late Greek historian Zosimus and the Byzantine Greek writer Joannes Zonaras wrote that Constantine had accused Crispus of incest with his stepmother.

London - Galerius (Gaius Galerius Valerius Maximianus)


galerius_nob_caes.png

Galerius was a distinguished soldier who became Caesar in 293. He married Diocletian's daughter (Galeria Valeria). When Diocletian retired in 305, Galerius was elevated to the rank of Augustus, with Maximinus Daia his Caesar. He was responsible for halting the persecution of Christians in April 311, and shortly afterwards he died of a horrible disease (possibly some form of bowel cancer or infected wound).

London - Licinius


licinus_sotf.png

Licinius was a childhood friend of Galerius, and was sent by him to deal with Maxentius after the death of Severus in 307. When he returned to the east, Galerius elevated Licinius to the rank of Augustus for the west of the empire in 308. After Galerius died in 311, Licinius entered into an agreement with Maximinus Daza to share the eastern provinces between them. Maximinus formed an alliance with Maxentius, which forced Licinius to make an agreement with the other emperor, Constantine, and in 313 he married Constantine’s half-sister, Flavia Julia Constantia.
Licinius defeated Maximinus at Tzirallum in 313 and Constantine defeated Maxentius in 312, so they were able to divide the empire between them. Between 313 and 316 Constantine and Licinius clashed on a couple of occasions, but things settled down until Constantine invaded part of the eastern empire, first to attack the Sarmatians and then to attack the Goths who were attacking Thrace.
When Licinius complained that Constantine had broken the treaty between them, Constantine went on the offensive. He defeated Licinius at the Battle of Adrianople and he made his last stand at the Battle of Chrysopolis in 324. Licinius’ life was spared due to the pleas of his wife, but the following year Constantine had him hanged.

London - Maximian Herculius


maximianus_mars_victor.png

The LMCC numbering in these albums comes from the excellent book by Hubert Cloke and Lee Toone, "The London Mint of Constantius and Constantine," which provides a much needed overhaul of the sections on the London mint in RIC volumes VI and VII.

London - Maximinus Daia


maximinus_genio_no_star.png

(When Diocletian and Maximianus Herculius retired on 1st May 305, Constantius and Galerius were elevated to the level of Augustus. At the same time two new Caesars were appointed by Diocletian to keep the pattern of the Tetrachy. Severus became Caesar to Constantius and Maximinus (also known as Maximinus Daia or Daza) became Caesar to Galerius. Galerius also gave Licinius the rank of Augustus in 308. When Galerius died in 311, Licinius and Maximinus divided the eastern empire between them. Maximinus formed an alliance with Maxentius (the son of Maximian Herculius) and fought Licinius at the battle of Tzirallum in April 313. He suffered a crushing defeat and died in the August at Tarsus.)

London - Severus (Flavius Valerius Severus)


severus_genio.png

When Diocletian and Maximian Herculius retired on 1st May 305, Constantius and Galerius were elevated to the level of Augustus. At the same time two new Caesars were appointed by Diocletian to keep the pattern of the Tetrachy. Severus became Caesar to Constantius and Maximinus became Caesar to Galerius. When Constantius died on 25th July 306, Severus became Augustus, although Constantine was also proclaimed as Augustus by Constantius' troops. Maximian's son and Galerius's son in law, Maxentius, was not happy that he had not been elevated to the rank of Caesar. He took over Italy and was joined by his father when Severus, the new Augustus, sought to take it back. Many of Severus' army had fought in the past for Maximian and abandoned their new leader, once he started besieging Rome leading to his capture. Severus was executed, perhaps shortly after his capture or when Galerius invaded Italy in September 307.

(ex CGB)

This is coin number 188 of the Chitry Hoard, and appears on plate 28, TM XXV (Cabinet des Médailles of the BnF).

(This is an example of RIC VI 209b / LMCC 7.05.011 without a star in the right field, which is incorrectly attributed in RIC as a separate issue. RIC VI 105 and 106 are said to refer to coins of Maximinus II with a GENIO POP ROM reverse, with a weight of 7.5 – 5 grams. In “The London Mint of Constantius and Constantine”, the authors agree with the argument put forward by Lord Stewartby (Coins of the mint of London from the Boursies Hoard) that coins 101, 102, 105 and 106 are coins of later “right star” issues where the star is missing.
Addenda 1 of the book has an example of a coin with an IMP MAXIMINVS PF AVG obverse (ex Roma Numismatics, June 2011), where the reverse does not have a star in the right field. This coin is from the same reverse die.)
