THEODOSIUS II, A.D. 402-450. AV Solidus (3.63 gms), Constantinople Mint, ca. 408-20.
RIC-202. Helmeted cuirassed bust facing three-quarters right, holding shield and spear; Reverse: Constantinopolis enthroned facing, head right, holding scepter and globe surmounted by Victory, foot on prow of ship, star to left. Nice compact flan. Minor graffiti on the reverse field, otherwise an appealing and wholesome example. VERY FINE.
