Description: NGC F Roman AE of Constantius II (AD 337-361) GLADIATOR REVERSE Constantius II, the middle son of Fausta, stood out as the most ruthlessly efficient among Constantine's offspring. Bestowed with the title of Caesar at the tender age of seven, he was granted the city of Antioch in 333. When contemplating ancient Rome, our minds often conjure images of gladiators – skilled warriors who entertained frenzied crowds in the Colosseum. These professional fighters engaged in battles against wild animals, condemned criminals, and each other, sometimes fighting until death. The enduring archetype of the gladiator has persisted for over two millennia, continuing into the present day. Constantius II, an avid enthusiast of such contests, chose to immortalize this passion on his own coins commemorating the 1100th anniversary of the founding of the ancient City of Rome. The design he selected depicts a gladiator on the brink of defeat after falling off his horse in the heat of combat.
