Description

This AE-Majorina coin from Emperor Arcadius, struck in Antioch, is a noteworthy example of late Roman Byzantine coinage. Arcadius reigned from 395 to 408 AD and was the son of Theodosius I, ruling the Eastern Roman Empire during a period of significant political and religious change.

The coin likely features a portrait of Arcadius on the obverse, wearing a diadem or crown, symbolizing imperial authority. The reverse may depict religious or imperial imagery, such as a cross, imperial bust, or other symbols of sovereignty, along with inscriptions referencing the emperor and mint location.

Made of bronze or similar alloy, the Majorina was a common denomination used in daily transactions. Its VF (Very Fine) grade indicates moderate wear but with clear details, making it a desirable piece for collectors interested in late Roman or Byzantine history.

A fine representative of Arcadius’ reign—an excellent addition for collectors of Byzantine or late Roman imperial coinage, offering a tangible link to the eastern empire during a pivotal era.
