This is another from the small lot of later Roman bronzes I picked up the other day. Despite how common these Constantinian "commemoratives" are, I've always had a soft spot for them. My latest specimen here is in presentable albeit not primo condition.

I think this particular one is RIC VII 241 (Siscia).

I like drawing/painting maritime and historical themed pieces. I just recently finished a Venetian piece with lots of coin references, and this design is actually next on my list. I'm going to make the galley more prominent.
