CONSTANTINE I, AD 306-337
AE2 (23.15mm, 4.51g, 12h)
Struck AD 312-313. Rome mint
Obverse: IMP CONSTANTINVS P F AVG, laureate and draped bust of Constantine I right, seen from behind
Reverse: SPQR OPTIMO PRINCIPI, legionary eagle facing with wings spread between two standards; RS in exergue

The reverse on this coin is a revival of a similar design employed by the emperor Trajan some two hundred years before. Scarce variety (eagle facing.)
