The PROVIDENTIAE AVGG ("providence of the emperors") coinage was issued across multiple eastern mints in the late 320s as Constantine consolidated sole rule following his defeat of Licinius in 324. Nicomedia, Licinius's former capital and one of the empire's most active mints, was quickly pressed into service producing Constantinian propaganda — the plural AVGG referencing Constantine and his designated heirs rather than a co-emperor of equal standing.
RIC VII 156 places this issue firmly within the reorganized Nicomedia mint's early output under the new regime.
