General: Rare coin from the Antioch mint. Flavius Julius Crispus was a Caesar of the Roman Empire. The co-reigning Roman Emperors Constantine and Licinius appointed three Caesars in 217 AD, Crispus being one of them. Respected by his soldiers for his proven strategic abilities, Crispus assisted Constantine in a war against Licinius. Crispus's promising life came to an end when at his father's orders he was tried, condemned to death, then executed.
