| Aanvullende informatie |
Crispus was Caesar under his father Constantine I and, by 324, had just delivered the decisive naval victory at the Hellespont that destroyed Licinius's fleet — effectively ending the last civil war of the divided empire. The PROVIDENTIAE CAESS coinage issued at Nicomedia in the immediate aftermath celebrated that reunification, struck at a mint that had until very recently been operating under Licinian authority. Within two years of this coin's production, Constantine had Crispus executed at Pola, his name subjected to damnatio memoriae and systematically erased from monuments across the empire.
