This marked the beginning of a united kingdom for the winner, who at that point needed a caesar with a view to dynastic succession. Constantius appointed his cousin Constantius Gallus, who married Constantina, sister of the emperor and widow of Hanniballianus. Constantius Gallus was an able general who had brought down several Persian revolts. He had made himself hated not so much for his despotic ways as for his pro-poor monetary policy, in contrast to that initiated by Constantine and continued by Constantius II in favor of gold coinage and the wealthier classes. This led to his eventual assassination by a conspiracy of the Antioch aristocracy and his 'damnatio memoriae'.

Victory advancing left, holding wreath and palm branch.RIC 21c; Depeyrot 32/4.Extremely rareFlavius Julius Valens was the younger brother of Valentinian I. After serving as protector domesticus (personal guard) of Julian II and Jovian, he immediately became emperor of the East in 364 thanks to his brother who was already Augustus of the West, although the two differed in faith. Valens in fact was an Arian, while Valentinian was a Nicene Christian. The first problem was presented by the usurper Procopius, comes of Antioch, who proclaimed himself Augustus of the East in 365. Valens defeated him, sentenced him to death and struck with damnatio memoriae. He later faced the Visigoths and a second conspiracy, hatched by Theodore of Antioch. In 374 Valens celebrated the decennalia and became Maximus Augustus in 375 on the death of his brother, after which he organized an expedition against the Persians that proved unsuccessful, forcing him to sign an unfavorable peace. Another problem was the confluence of Ostrogoths and Visigoths into Roman territory across the Danube because of the advance of the Huns. The Romans were forced to accept them, but this integration was not easy; the Visigoths felt oppressed and exploited as a labor-power, resulting in an insurrection. Valens, considered a general of little ability by his contemporaries, was thus induced to recruit Goth mercenaries, with the risk that they would end up allied with his enemies. In fact, a large contingent of Visigoths, Ostrogoths, Huns, and Alamanni joined forces to fight the Romans and achieved a decisive victory at Hadrianopolis (Thrace) in 378. The tremendous defeat was caused by Gratian, who was meanwhile on the Western throne and did not arrive in time with his troops. Valens died in the battle but the Goths failed to conquer Constantinople. According to Ambrose, bishop of Mediolanum, the defeat at Hadrianopolis heralded the fall of the empire and the end of the world. Condition: Good very fine; removed mount.Weight: 1.66 g.

Constantinopolis seated facing on throne, head right, with foot set upon prow, holding sceptre and victoriola.RIC 7; Depeyrot 55/1.The eldest son of Theodosius I from Spain, Arcadius became augustus at the age of six. When his father left to end the usurpation of Eugenius and did not return, Arcadius remained in Constantinople in his stead and became augustus of the East at eighteen, while his brother Honorius got the West. The empire was now divided, Theodosius I was first seen as the unifier and then as the one who divided it forever. From this time on, the two empires had independent lives and slowly became more and more distinct from each other, and Arcadius was recognized as the first Byzantine emperor. Initially Arcadius reigned under his patron Rufinus, an ambitious politician from Aquitaine who frowned upon his equivalent in the West, Stilicho. The latter made a secret agreement with the Visigoth leader Gainas, who had been welcomed to Constantinople by Arcadius, and killed Rufinus. Stilicho thus prevailed in this dispute but was sentenced to death in 408, accused among other things of the murder of Rufinus himself. His place was then taken by the eunuch Eutropius, remembered in the sources as a cruel and vicious man. Eutropius tried to forge an alliance with Alaric, who now hold the balance of power between East and West. By putting his opponents to death and confiscating their wealth, he succeeded in getting Stilicho declared a public enemy and bring Africa under the control of the East in order to secure its grain, bringing the West to its knees and starving it. In any case, Arcadius was persuaded by the court to get Eutropius, who was in fact acting as the real emperor, out of the way and hit with damnatio memoriae as well. In his place was chosen Gainas himself, the Visigoth leader, who, however, was short-lived. The anti-barbarian mood that was fueled by influential figures, such as Patriarch John Chrysostom, resulted in a revolt in Constantinople against the Goths and, therefore, also against Gainas, and led to a massacre of the barbarians and the escape of their leader. At this point the reins of the empire were taken over by the emperor's wife, Aelia Eudoxia, as Arcadius proved incapable of governing. Aelia pushed Alaric to invade the West, receiving in turn fierce criticism from the patriarch and the hatred of much of the people. However, she died in 404 from an abortion, while Arcadius died of illness four years later. Condition: Near extremely fine; luster in field.Weight: 4.47 g. Diameter: 21 mm.

Diademed, helmeted and cuirassed bust facing slightly right, holding spear and shield decorated with horseman motif.Rev: CONCORDIA AVGG Δ / CONOB. Constantinopolis seated facing on throne, head right, with foot set upon prow, holding sceptre and victoriola.RIC 8; Depeyrot 55/2.Honorius became Augustus of the West at the age of ten at the behest of his father Theodosius I, who was intent on establishing the succession before his death. Given his young age, however, he was assisted by the valiant general Stilicho, who was half Vandal in origin and unlikely to have been aiming for the throne. The East, on the other hand, was entrusted to Honorius's brother Arcadius, and this was home to unrest because the two brothers did not like each other and were both assisted by cunning and manipulative advisers. By now there was no longer talk of a western and eastern part of the empire, but of two separate empires. Theodosius' project of a united empire in solidarity with the barbarian peoples, integrated into the Roman army, had failed. According to some historians Arcadius was the first Byzantine emperor. Stilicho faced great difficulties on the eastern front, mainly due to Alaric's Goths and other tribes crossing into Gaul. The situation precipitated and the Senate refused to pay a large sum of money to Alaric, further accusing Stilicho of conspiring with the enemy and condemning him to death in 408. It was the beginning of the end for the West, because the most valuable politician and general was lost. Honorius resided in Ravenna, where he treacherously attempted to murder Alaric, who was there to renew the 'foedus' with the emperor. This caused him to break off all negotiations and led to the famous 'sack of Rome' in 410, which marked the end of the city as capital. The news of Rome's fall represented a trauma for the empire and the collapse of the certainty of its invincibility. Honorius also did not recognize the marriage between his half-sister Galla Placidia and Ataulf, Alaric's successor. This marriage was strongly desired by the Goths and may have been a response to the crisis in the empire, as Ataulf intended to settle permanently in Roman territories by offering protection to the emperor instead of fighting him. In 413 General Flavius Constantius defeated four usurpers in the western provinces, succeeded in signing a peace treaty with Ataulf, and became associate emperor under the name Constantius III (421) but, unrecognized by the eastern empire, died shortly thereafter. In 423 Honorius also died, marking the final surrender, the birth of the Romano-Barbarian kingdoms and the first steps of medieval history. Condition: Extremely fine.Weight: 4.48 g. Diameter: 20 mm.

Victory standing left, holding long jeweled cross; star to upper left.RIC 2020; Ranieri 76 corr. (cross on shoulder); Depeyrot 16/3.Galla Placidia was the daughter of emperor Theodosius I and his second wife Galla Justina. With her two Roman imperial dynasties were united, the Valentinianic dynasty (her maternal grandfather was Valentinian I) and her father's Theodosian dynasty. In 390 she received the title 'nobilissima,' which gave her dignity on a level with her brothers (Arcadius, Honorius, and Gratianus). After the sack of Rome in 410, Alaric's Visigoths left the city and took with them Galla Placidia, then 18 years old, as a hostage to force Honorius to concede to their demands for tribute and land. Upon Alaric's death, Ataulf led the Visigoths and Galla Placidia to Gaul, whom he took in marriage by Roman rite in 414 at Narbo, naming her queen of the Visigoths, hoping for Honorius' recognition. But the marriage was not recognized by the court in Ravenna, and Ataulf elected Priscus Attalus emperor, who was defeated by the Roman army, captured and sent to Honorius. Ataulf and Galla Placidia then traveled to Spain (early 415), where the king died shortly thereafter. The successor Walha, in exchange for a large amount of grain, agreed to fight for the Romans against the Vandals and Suebi in Spain, and to give back Galla Placidia, who returned to Ravenna with Constantius, who became her husband and was rewarded by Honorius with the consulship (417). Constantius III and Galla Placidia had two children, Justa Grata Honoria and the future emperor Valentinian III, on whose behalf Galla actually reigned for more than a decade. She died in 450, shortly after Justa Grata Honoria's marriage to Bassus Herculanus, and was buried in Rome in a chapel in the old St. Peter's Basilica. Condition: Extremely fine.Weight: 4.44 g.
