Rubans de type 3 aux extrémités bouletées. Grand buste consulaire ornementé avec la toga picta et la toga palmata. Les bustes consulaires sont toujours rares pour Crispus. Au revers, le globe n’est pas visible (RMBT, p. 97). C’est le deuxième exemplaire signalé pour le type.

Historical background


CRISPUS

(1/04/317-09/326)

Caesar

Crispus is the son of Constantine and Minervine. Born around 300, he was named Caesar in 317 with Constantine II and Licinius II. Rightly or wrongly, he is accused by his stepmother of wanting to abuse her. Faced with these accusations, Constantine had his eldest son put to death in early 326.
