                                Description

     This coin was minted at Arelate in the name of Julian II Caesar.
     Julian II served as Caesar under Constantius II from 355-360 AD.
     He later ruled as Augustus from 360-363. Julian was given the
     name "The Apostate" by Christian historians because of his
     renunciation of the Christian faith as the official faith of the
     empire, and his attempts to restore the old pagan beliefs to
     prominence. Julian was also a man of considerable literary
     achievements, and some of his writings are still extant. He could
     as easily be called "The Philosopher" as "The Apostate". The
     obverse of this piece depicts the bare-headed, draped, and
     cuirassed bust of Julian II facing right, with legends
     D.N.IVLIANVS.NOB.CAES. The reverse features the legends
     VOTIS.V.MVLTIS.X. within a wreath, with mint/oficina mark TCON in
     the exergue. This piece grades a choice XF/XF+, with bold devices
     and legends all around, and attractive original colour, showing
     lovely iridescence on the reverse. The scan simply cannot show
     how nice a piece this is. A marvelous example of the scarcer
     silver coinage of Julian II Caesar, this piece is catalouged as
     RIC-264. All coins guaranteed genuine without limitations. Buyer
     pays postage/insurance, coin shipped on clearance of funds. PA
     residents please add appropriate sales tax. Visa/MC accepted for
     orders of $20 or more. Member ANA, PAN. Thanks!
