No and no. This guy died in a very humiliating way.

No use giving me hints like that, did my best (and age helped a bit) to forget most irrelevant details of Roman history.

Good night then, I expect 'Augustus_Maximus' to dig through his treasure chest and come up with something.

You have the right to think that but I have the right to disagree (technically he was made an Augustus, and Theodosius was a weak ............) Lets leave it at that and not restart the Roman Civil War.

Got it in the first try 'echizento'    Antoninianus minted at Comulodunum (Colchester) by Allectus - RIC#82 / Sear[ME]#13815 Obverse: IMP C ALLECTVS PFI AVG around bust right, radiate and cuirassed Reverse: MONETA AVG around Moneta standing left, holding scales and cornucopia in field S P and below C (Yes, the reverse is quite poor - but wouldn't you pay $5 for a coin from Allectus?) |

Lol you two should have a debate thread about Theodosius, Mag Max, etc. Spice things up a bit around here. Would be pretty interesting to see.
