| Aanvullende informatie |
Julian II struck this solidus during his campaign to reverse the Christianization of the empire — a project that consumed his brief reign and ended with his death on the Persian front in June 363. The Antioch mint was central to his preparations for that ill-fated eastern campaign against Shapur II, and gold coinage from this period funded one of the largest Roman military mobilizations of the fourth century.
He died of a spear wound near Samarra, reportedly refusing to name a Christian successor.
