As promised, my Constantine II, and also Helena, mother of Constantine the Great. For Helena it was hard to get all of the features and color at the same time so I included two pics of the reverse. Also, she happens to have been generously given to me by a fellow CCF member. You know who you are! Report this Post to the Staff

Bing Pillar of the Community United States 4253 Posts	Posted 09/25/2011 12:13 am As you know, I am a patina nut. So, I love your coins if for no other reason then the patina. Actually, I don't own a Helena, but I've been looking. Nice coins. Thanks JW Report this Post to the Staff
VisigothKing Pillar of the Community United States 4778 Posts	Posted 09/25/2011 12:27 am Thanks jw. And I know what you mean about the patina; I have a Constantine I that's a rich green on the obverse, and a less attractive (but still nice) dark green on the reverse. but I'll have to bust that one open from it's 2x2 when I take photos of it. And with this Constantine II, I like the half-cleaned look to it. Report this Post to the Staff
