Providentiae Avgg RIC Arles 30var230 viewsAE Follis 313ce
[IMP] CONSTANTINVS PF AVG, bust left, cuir., laureate, shield over left shoulder, spear over right
PROVIDE-NT-IAE AVGG, female figure (possibly Moneta) on prow, holding cornucopia, facing what must be the personification of Arles, who is holding a standard (Ben informs me that this may be a symbol of Constantine's Italian victory).
QARL in exergue
3.57g, 21.4mm
RIC Arles 30
This particular issue is quite unusual with this obverse type, however I am aware of one other in existence. The symbolism of this type and it's partner, VTILITAS PVBLICA, is rather special. On the VTILITAS issue, Moneta is on prow also, but facing away from the figure (probably the personification of Ostia) on the shore, as if departing. On the Providentiae issue, Moneta is depicted as arriving at Arles. An interesting oddity of my example however: On most of these coins, the figure on shore is not wearing a turreted headdress, while on this example, she is.
