	Mule of Constantine I obverse and Constantius II reverse, AE3, 324-325, Sirmium CONSTAN_TINVS AVG Laureate head right PROVIDEN_TIAE CAESS Campgate with six rows, two turrets, no doors, star above, top and bottom rows empty blocks, ramp with stairs at base RIC VII, -- Ex Carlos Escuer, eBay, 2003 There is still some debate as to whether or not this is a legitimate mule of a Constantine I obverse die, most likely for a SARMATIA DEVICTA reverse, or an ancient imitation of excellent style. The legend engraving hints at an imitation, as does the Magnentiusesque portrait, but I do not have any other Sirmium mule examples against which to compare at this time. Also, the obverse is slightly double-struck as can be seen by the forehead.
