Constantius Chlorus died at Eboracum (York) in July 306, barely a year into his tenure as senior Augustus following Diocletian's abdication — making coins struck in his name as Augustus exceptionally short-lived issues. The Ticinum mint, one of the key western imperial production centers under the Tetrarchy, was responsible for this type, and output from the facility during the 305–306 window was closely tied to the administrative reorganization that followed the abdication ceremony at Nicomedia.
RIC VI 51 is among the rarer Ticinum aurei of the period. Calicó's citation of this type reflects its appearance in major Spanish and European collections over the past century.
