Roman Empire
HOUSE OF CONSTANTINE
Constantius II AD 337-361 AE Nummus
GRADED NGC AU
Obv: Diademed head of Constantius II right "DN
CONSTANTIVS PF AVG"
Rev: FEL TEMP REPARATIO, soldier
attacking left, thrusting spear at fallen horseman
Constantius II is a real shaggy dog story of
an imperial career. He spent all of his time dealing with stuff that came up:
war with Persia, usurpers within the empire, succession problems. He put through
administrative reforms too, pointing the government toward the form it would
take in Byzantine times. About ten years into the reign they had a coinage
reform in which a larger billon coin, the maiorina was introduced. The reverse
type is notable: the Roman soldier spears the fallen horseman, the legend FEL
TEMP REPARATIO means “Happy Days are Here Again.”
