Description: Divus Constantine I follis The "Divus Constantine I Hand of God" coin commemorates the deification of Emperor Constantine I after his death in AD 337. Minted in Antioch, the coin reflects the late Roman practice of honouring deceased emperors with divine status. The reverse depicts Constantine being taken to heaven in a quadriga (four-horse chariot), with the "Hand of God" extending from the sky to symbolize divine intervention and approval. This imagery combines traditional Roman iconography with emerging Christian themes, underscoring Constantine's pivotal role in the empire's transition toward Christianity and the merging of imperial authority with divine providence. See images for condition. both obverse and reverse are nicely detailed (please see my other items - I can and will combine postage!)
