Constantine The Great Era Roman Copper Coin 330 AD
Constantine the Great Era Roman Empire c. 330 AD Copper Coin Fragment INB Slabbed
This copper coin fragment dates back to the Roman Empire during the era of Constantine the Great, circa 330 AD. The item is encased in a protective slab from the International Numismatic Bureau (INB), featuring a green label and a unique identification barcode. While the coin is a partial specimen, it retains visible surface details characteristic of 4th-century Roman bronze and copper coinage, which often featured imperial portraits or commemorative allegorical scenes. This piece represents a tangible link to the late Roman period, specifically the time when Constantine moved the capital to Constantinople and solidified Christianity's influence across the empire. The item is securely held in an INB holder, ensuring the preservation of this ancient copper relic.
