Constantinian Roman Empire BI Nummus AE3/4 NGC AU Ancient Epfig Hoard Victory

Description:
Offered is a Constantinian Roman Empire BI Nummus (AE3/AE4 denomination), certified NGC AU and attributed to the Epfig Hoard—a well-documented archaeological find of late Roman bronze coinage discovered in France. This About Uncirculated example features sharp detail, strong remaining silvering or metallic sheen (typical for BI-struck issues), and minimal circulation wear. The reverse depicts Victory, a common motif during the Constantinian era symbolizing imperial power, military success, and divine favour. The obverse presents the bust of an emperor from the Constantinian dynasty, such as Constantine the Great or one of his sons.

Struck in the 4th century AD, these coins circulated across the Roman Empire during a transformative period marked by military reforms, Christianization, and the consolidation of imperial authority. NGC-certified AU examples from a named hoard like Epfig carry added historical significance and collector appeal.
