Here we have a beautiful and interesting way to enjoy gold – a genuine solidus in a very collectible grade. Theodosius II was a young emperor and scholar, and the laws founded under his reign and the Christian philosophies studied had far-reaching consequences. From his seat in Constantinople (present-day Istanbul, Turkey) he presided over the Eastern Roman Empire for almost fifty years until he fell off his horse.
The Numismatic Guaranty Corporation grades this gold Roman coin Choice Almost Uncirculated, with a strike rating of 5/5 and a surface rating of 2/5. The slab notes brushing and marks. All up, that makes this very nice coin very affordable.
