Small AE3/4 of Delmatius with Two Soldiers, One Standard Reverse

Two nephews of Constantine I, Delmatius and Hanniballinus were caesars between the years of AD 335 and 337. The legend FL DELMATIVS NOB C indicates Delmatius' status as caesar rather than augustus.

Both boys were murdered during the struggles for power that followed the death of Constantine I. Coins of Delamtius are available, although they are somewhat scarcer than the ordinary two soldiers, one standard type. Coins of Hanniballinus are quite rare though, and are priced in the hundreds of dollars even for coins in as worn a condition as the example shown here. The reverse is a two soldiers, two standards type with GLORIA EXERCITVS legend.
