Title
COIN
Description
English:

A Roman copper alloy nummus of the House of Constantine, dating to AD 330-335 (Reece period 17). VRBS ROMA type, depciting a wolf and twins with two stars above. Mint of Trier. LRBC I, no. 65. The coin is struck on a notably eliptical flan, with the remains of a white metal coating only visible on the obverse and peirced at 3 o'clock. Such reuse could be either Roman or Early Medieval in date, in the absence of any finds from the latter period the former is suggested.
