Christianization of the Coinage
Constantine's coinage reflects the syncretic and ambiguous nature of his religious beliefs: the image of the Sun God (Sol Invictus) continues until 325 and the emperor is occasionally shown with the radiate solar crown of Apollo, while Christian symbols are both rare and very discreet.

The Vikings and Money in England
Among the results of the Viking invasions of England was an enormous increase in the production of coins. Many of them ended up in Scandinavia. Indeed, far more English coins from that period have been found in Scandinavia than in England!
