Discover the captivating history behind the Roman AE of Maximian, an ancient bronze coin from AD 286-310, graded Very Fine (VF) by NGC. This coin offers a rare glimpse into the life and reign of Maximian, the formidable second-in-command to Diocletian and co-Emperor in the West during the early days of the Tetrarchy. Maximian was known for his military prowess, commanding significant battles against the Goths and fighting extensively in Roman Britain. In 310 AD, he declared himself Augustus after Diocletian's retirement and during Constantine the Great's campaign in the Rhine. However, his reign was short-lived; upon discovering Maximian's betrayal, Constantine offered him the choice between execution or suicide. Maximian chose the latter, marking a dramatic end to his rule.

This genuine ancient Roman coin features a portrait of Maximian on the obverse, capturing his strong and determined visage. The reverse varies, often depicting mythological and military themes, reflecting the era's rich cultural and historical context. The term 'Dominate' refers to this period of Roman history, beginning with Diocletian's reforms in 284 AD and extending through the fall of the Western Empire in 476 AD.
