Magnentius was a usurper who seized power in the western Roman Empire after the death of Constans. A skilled general of Germanic origin, he controlled Gaul, Italy, and parts of Africa. His coinage is notable for its large bronze denominations, often featuring bold busts and symbols of Victory, Chi-Rho, and Roma, blending pagan and Christian imagery during a transitional era.
