Theodosius I, 19 January 379 - 17 January 395 A.D.
Very crude engraving, even for Alexandria. Perhaps it is a barbarous imitative, in which case it is for me even more interesting.
Bronze AE 4, RIC IX 20(b), SRCV 4188, VF, 1.331g, 12.4mm, 180o, Alexandria mint, 388 - 392 A.D.; obverse D N THEODO-SIVS P F AVG, pearl-diademed, draped and cuirassed bust right; reverse SALVS REI-PVBLICAE, Victory walking left, carrying trophy and dragging captive, cross left.
Nice psychometric buzz with some visuals, and a sharp bright coin with high eye-appeal.
