Not Magnus Maximus, but let me be generous with hints: the coin was minted in Lyon.

This may have been missed last night but can anyone tell me if we know what these nummi or siliqua were worth in the latter 4th century( as in purchasing power or wages and food prices) thanks In keeping with the tradition of LRB .
