2 - Roman Imperial Coins - § Magnus Maximus, the Usurper (383–388) Mediolanum - Tremissis - Obverse: Victory advancing to the left, holding a laurel wreath and a palm branch - RIC IX 18a AU (1.42 g) RRRRR Coins known to have been issued by this emperor include solidi, tremissis, siliques, and bronze fractional coins. The rarest denomination is certainly the tremissis; it appears among the great collections of the past only in the Montagu and d’Amecourt collections and is absent from more recent ones, including the Biaggi De Blasys collection. The mint of origin for the few specimens that have come up for auction in relatively recent years is always that of Trier, which Magnus Maximus had chosen as his capital. The mint at Mediolanum, active around 366 during a siege, is known primarily for the production of silver siliques, while its gold issues—which were extremely scarce—are known only from the RIC. Of the utmost rarity; perhaps only 2 or 3 examples are known. SHIPPING TO ITALY ONLY! - BB+
