| (URB) Urbs Roma, 330-346 A.D. |
| AE 3/4 |
| Obv. - VRBS ROMA, Helmeted bust of Roma left, wearing
imperial mantle. |
| Rev. - No legend. She-wolf standing left, suckling

and Remus. |
|
Comments: This is one of the anonymous issues
struck by Constantine I (The Great) and his sons during the period 330-346
A.D. This coin was struck to commemorate Rome as the cultural and
moral center of the Roman Empire.
The reverse alludes to one of the legends involving the founding
of Rome; the legend relates the tale of the twin brothers Romulus and Remus.
They were the offspring of Mars and the Vestal Virgin Rhea Silva, daughter
of Numitor, King of Alba Longa. The twins were placed in a reed boat upon
the occasion of their birth and set adrift on the Tiber. They floated ashore
near the Palantine Hill and were found by a she-wolf who protected and
suckled them until they were found by a shepard. When they were adults they
founded a new city and fought between themselves over whose name the new
city should bear. Remus was killed and the new city became known as Rome in
honor of Romulus. |
