Divus Constantine I. Died AD 337. Æ (15mm, 1.84 g, 6h). Alexandria mint, 1st officina(?). Struck circa AD 345-347. Veiled head right / Aequitas, winged, standing left, holding scales and scepter; [S]MALA(?). RIC VIII 28; LRBC 1469. Near VF, earthen green patina, some porosity and roughness. Scarce.

Alexandria was the only mint to employ the lengthier legend for this type, IVST VENER MEMOR as opposed to IVST VEN MEM. Additionally, on all other mints striking this type, Aequitas lacks wings; it is only at Alexandria that she is depicted winged.
