Constantius Gallus
Caesar 351–354 AD
Constantius Gallus, cousin of Constantius II, was appointed Caesar in 351 AD to help stabilise the eastern provinces during a period of military and political strain. Although energetic and initially successful in restoring order, his harsh administration and growing tensions with Constantius II ultimately led to his recall and execution. His coinage, struck at several eastern mints, reflects the broader themes of the FEL TEMP REPARATIO series and offers collectors a varied and historically significant group of mid‑4th century bronzes.
