Constantine I, as Filius Augustorum, Æ Nummus. Alexandria, AD 309-310. FL VAL CONSTANTINVS FIL AVG, laureate head right / GENIO CAESARIS, Genius standing facing, head left, holding patera and cornucopiae; K-A P across fields, ALE in exergue. RIC 99b; P. Bruun, "The Negotiations of the Conference of Carnuntum," QT 8 (1979), pl. I, 8.
Extremely Fine. Very Rare.
Galerius offered the newly-created title of 'Filius Augustorum' to Constantine and Maximinus II Daia after the conference of Carnuntum in November AD 308, though it was rejected by both as seeming below their deserved station. Thus, although the eastern mints under Galerius' control bear the title FIL AVG, none of the coins struck at the mints under Constantine and Maximinus feature this title.
