Why This Collection Matters

Constantine I and the rulers who followed him governed during one of the most consequential periods in Roman history.

After Constantine’s victory at the Battle of the Milvian Bridge in AD 312, he and Licinius agreed in AD 313 on a broad policy of religious toleration and restitution traditionally associated with the Edict of Milan. Christianity subsequently received increasing imperial patronage, although the empire’s Christianization was a gradual and contested process rather than a single overnight conversion.

Constantine refounded Byzantium as Constantinople and dedicated the enlarged city in AD 330. It became one of the Roman Empire’s principal capitals and later the center of the medieval Eastern Roman state.

This collection may include coins of figures such as:

  • Constantine I — the first Roman emperor to actively patronize Christianity on a large imperial scale
  • Crispus — Constantine’s eldest son and a successful Caesar and military commander before his execution in AD 326
  • Constantine II — one of Constantine’s sons and an Augustus after AD 337
  • Constans — Constantine’s youngest son and western emperor
  • Constantius II — the longest-ruling of Constantine’s sons and eventually sole Augustus
  • Constantius Gallus — Caesar in the East under Constantius II
  • Julian II — a member of the Constantinian dynasty who rejected Christianity and promoted traditional Greco-Roman cults during his brief reign as sole emperor
  • Another historically appropriate figure from the Constantinian era, depending on inventory

Because Julian actively opposed the dynasty’s Christian religious direction, it is more accurate to describe this as a collection from the Constantinian era than to call every included ruler a “Christian emperor.”

These coins belong to the fourth-century world in which Christianity expanded dramatically, Constantinople rose in importance, and Roman political and religious institutions underwent major change.
