| Beschrijving voorzijde | Laureate and cuirassed bust of Constantine II as Caesar facing right, depicted in a youthful military portrait typical of his early coinage. The bust is rendered in a bold, slightly stylized late Roman manner with visible pauldron detail on the cuirass. The encircling obverse legend reads CONSTANTINVS IVN NOB CAES, identifying the young prince as a most noble Caesar. The lettering is somewhat worn but legible around the circumference of the flan. The overall fabric is characteristic of the Arelate mint circa AD 320. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Constantine II was elevated to Caesar in 317 AD at roughly eighteen months old, making him one of the youngest recipients of the title in imperial history. The CAESARVM NOSTRORVM vow coinage issued from Arelate — modern Arles, which had supplanted Lyon as the dominant mint of the western Gallic provinces under Diocletian — was part of a coordinated propaganda effort celebrating the dynasty's junior heirs across multiple mints simultaneously. RIC VII 222 is among the more localized varieties of this type, tied specifically to Arelate's workshop output in the early 320s.
