Title
English: Roman Coins
Description
English: A depiction of the obverse of a golden Roman coin—a solidus of Honorius—from the figures decorating the margins of Moll's map of Bedfordshire, sold separately and as Map 17 in his Set of Fifty New and Correct Maps of England and Wales...


The illustration derives from figure 27 of Tabula II Nummi Britannici on Page 98 of William Camden's Britannia, Vol. I. Its note states "27. In that golden coin of Honorius, there is nothing observable, but that from AVGGG. we infer that there were then three Augusti, or Emperors; which was after the year 420, when Honorius was Emperor in the West, Theodosius Junior in the East, and along with them Constantius (who had conquered that Constantine, elected upon account of his name,) made Emperor by Honorius. As for that CONOB, it shows it to be pure gold, stamped at Constantinople. For, as far as my observation has carried me, I never met with CONOB. in any coins but golden ones."

Notes:
