Why This Coin Matters

Every civilization has its founding story.

For Rome, that story began with twin brothers Romulus and Remus, abandoned as infants and rescued by a she-wolf who nurtured them on the banks of the Tiber River. According to Roman tradition, Romulus would go on to found the city of Rome in 753 BC.

This authentic bronze coin celebrates that legendary origin.

Issued during the reign of Constantine in the early 4th century AD, the coin features the helmeted bust of Roma—the divine personification of the Eternal City—on the obverse. The reverse displays one of the most recognizable scenes in Roman mythology: the she-wolf standing over Romulus and Remus.

These commemorative coins were struck at the same time Constantine was establishing Constantinople as a new imperial capital. Even as the empire evolved and power shifted eastward, Rome's legendary origins remained central to its identity.

More than one thousand years after Rome's traditional founding date, the empire was still proudly celebrating the story that defined its past.

More than just an ancient coin, this is a tangible connection to one of the most enduring legends in human history.
