EFLargeCents Pillar of the Community United States 1304 Posts	Posted 09/22/2015 1:35 pm I have posted these coins here before, but have since improved my photographic technique and added a couple to the collection. My theme is Roman Britain. This includes coins that were minted directly in Britain, mention Britain or have a Britain theme, or coins dug in Britain. Here is what I have acquired so far, hopefully in chronological order to some extent! Commodus Denarius: AD 185. Legend includes BRIT Caracalla Denarius: AD 210. Reverse Victory in Britain Carausius Antoninianus: AD 287-93. Usurper in Britain Constantine I: AD 310-320. London Mint Lucinius: AD 316. London Mint Constantine II: AD 322-325. London Mint Crispus: AD 323. London Mint Finally, I have a Constantius II Centenionalis from about AD 350 minted at Arles. This coin came out of the Bridgnorth Hoard in Britain. It isn't the best in terms of condition, but the tie in historically is of note and why I picked I up. Enjoy! I have a long way to go to complete all the rulers that minted in Britain, as well as types etc... Report this Post to the Staff

Beautiful set. You have some really choice items there. But the "historical tie-in" for that last one from Arles eludes me. Could you enlighten us/me? Report this Post to the Staff
Arael Pillar of the Community United States 567 Posts	Posted 09/22/2015 7:18 pm I love the second Constantine I you have! As well as the Crispus, I've always wanted a Crispus but haven't gotten one yet. Report this Post to the Staff
