| Additional information |
The VRBS ROMA issue was struck across multiple mints simultaneously from around 330 AD as part of Constantine's commemoration of the new eastern capital — a political gesture as much as a monetary one. The Rome mint's own participation carried a certain irony, given that Constantine had largely abandoned the city after his victory over Maxentius in 312 and rarely returned. RIC VII Rome 354 belongs to the later phase of this emission, placed in 335–336, by which point Constantine was already deep in succession politics, dividing the empire among his sons and nephews in the months before his death in 337.
