I have developed an interest in the coins posthumously honoring Constantine I, but have been frustrated by the lack of easily accessible information about these coins. So, I have decided to learn all that I can about them and put together a web page detailing all that I have learned about the coins and mints, and catalog any consistency/inconsistency in the style and craftsmanship of the different mints.
Ultimately I will need multiple examples of each type from each mint. I am not going to be able to buy all the coins it would take to compile the information I need, so I am hoping some of you have coin pictures that you would be willing to let me use. The first type I am going to study is the "Hand of God," series, but I hope to eventually cover all four types so I am happy to receive pics of any of them.
I am grateful for anything that is sent in, but I am especially looking for coins that are generally centered and in good enough shape to show details like the hand of God, mint mark, horse legs, folds of the veil, etc. Diameters and weights would be nice for additional statistics, but are not really needed. If anyone has any book or article recommendations, those would be appreciated very much also.
If you have any pics that you would like to contribute to my project, they can be sent to bdsn77@hotmail.com Any that end up on the web page will be credited, unless the person who sent it would rather remain anonymous.
Thanks in advance,
Justin

This sounds interesting, it's going to be a big task to compile all the info.

Those sending photos may need to remove the period after com in the link. We all need to be careful to remember that the rules of grammar changed when sentences became URL's.

Doh, sorry about that. Thanks for the coin pics, I really appreciate it. Yes, it will take me a while and I am sure it will be a lot more work than I am thinking, but that's ok. It still sounds fun.
