The AV Solidus gold coin was a crucial tool during the decline of the Western Roman Empire. As the empire’s ability to withstand the challenges of external military threats was declining, the strength and value of the AV Solidus showed that the empire could maintain a measure of stability and importance through its currency. This AV Solidus from the era of Rome’s sacking by the Goths earned a Choice Extremely Fine grade from the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC). Today, the Western Roman Empire Honorius AV Solidus Coin is available at JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
This AV Solidus Coin transports the holder back to the decline of the Western Roman Empire. Many of these were issued as attacks from the Visigoths increased and the imperial court had to relocate to Ravenna following the sack of the capital by Alaric in 410 AD. While the political power of Honorius was fractured and the Roman military was under constant strain, the AV Solidus maintained its strong reputation for purity and consistent weights, keeping the empire afloat longer than it might have otherwise managed to sustain through pure military power.
The Western Roman Empire Honorius AV Solidus Coin offered here comes in Choice Extremely Fine condition. This coin earned 5/5 strike grades, indicating a specimen with a strong design strike that is well-centered. Additionally, the 4/5 surface grade indicates a coin with above-average luster, as well as minimal signs of wear and tear from handling.
The obverse of the Western Roman Empire Honorius AV Solidus Coin comes with a depiction of Honorius in front-facing relief. On the reverse of the Honorius AV Solidus Coin, you will find a right-profile depiction of a military figure with weapons. Many of the AV Solidus Coins issued during the reign of Honorius were used to finance the Western Roman Empire’s conflicts with the Visigoths.
