Genuine Ancient Roman Coin - Constantine II - AD 316-340

Get a great deal on this Authentic Roman Coin auction presented by Property Room. Winning bidder will receive the exact item pictured. Constantine II was born at Arelate, the son of Constantine and Fausta. In AD 317 Constantine II was elevated to the rank of Caesar alongside his half brother Crispus. This was part of an agreement between Constantine and Licinius, who simultaneously promoted his own son, Licinius the Younger, to the same position. In AD 320 and AD 321 Constantine II then held the consulship, first as the colleague of his father, then of Crispus. The fact of Constantine II being made consul, too young even to be able to sign his own name yet, did much to support Licinius' accusation that Constantine was seeking to advance his sons at the expense of Licinius' son. A matter which was a contributing factor in the eventual break between the two Augusti. In AD 324, the year of Licinius' defeat, Constantine II held yet another consulship with Crispus. But in AD 326 Crispus was executed for (either for treason or adultery). This left Constantine II as the senior Caesar alongside his brother and co-Caesar Constantius II who had been elevated by his father in AD 323. In AD 332 Constantine II was sent by his father to the Danube to campaign against the Visigoths and their ruler Alaric. Naturally his was a purely ceremonial command, the actually commanding of the troops being conducted by seasoned generals rather than an unexperienced teenage, royal heir. The campaign though was very successful, a crushing victory being won over the enemy. Following this, in AD 333 Constantine II was moved to Treviri (Trier) to oversee the defence of the Rhine frontier.
