The reverse of a Gold Solidus, struck in Constantinople in the name of and commemorating the second joint consulate, in January 425 AD, of the Eastern Roman Emperor Theodosius II and his younger cousin Valentinian III who had by then recently been made Western emperor and installed by the Eastern forces in Italy.
Hence on this coin, both emperors are depicted enthroned.
The legend reads SALVS REI PVBLICAE, for the health (or salvation) of the "Republic".

Byzantine Gold Coins The vast number of surviving Byzantine coins attests to the level of trade across the empire. Controlled and supervised by the emperor, the producers of coins took care to represent his authority and reflect his stature. Talented artists were recruited to engrave the dies (molds) used for the striking of coins. Emperors increasingly came to include their heirs and co-emperors on their coinage, as well as other family members or even earlier rulers. Coins were recognized, then as now, as small, portable works of art. With their inscriptions and images, Byzantine coins provide valuable documentation of historical events and a record of the physical appearance of the emperors. The coins shown here include the solidus, the basic gold coin of 24 karats; the tremissis, a gold coin of one-third the weight and value of the solidus; and the nomisma, which in the 10th century replaced the solidus as the standard gold coin.

Pre-Decimal Currency
The UK 'went decimal' on the 15th. February 1971. (1971 is often called the 'Year of the Con' because manufacturers and retailers used the changeover to increase their prices).
Pre-decimalisation money (L S D) was divided into pounds (£/L), shillings (s.) and pennies (d.).
'L S D' also stands for the hallucinogenic drug Lysergic Acid Diethylamide, but in this context it stands for the Latin words 'Libra', 'Solidus' and 'Denarius'. The coinage was as follows:
- 20 shillings (s.) in £1 (L)
- 12 pennies (d.) in 1 shilling (s.)
- 240 pennies in £1
- 480 halfpennies in £1
- 960 farthings in £1
The £ was represented by a printed note, and there was also a 10-shilling note.
A 'Guinea' (beloved of private medical consultants and solicitors) was 21 shillings - a way of extracting an additional 5% from the patient or client.
-- The British Pound and Inflation
The British pound has lost 94% its value since 1971, such that £100 in 1971 is equivalent in purchasing power to about £1,806 today. The pound has had an average inflation rate of 5.51% per year between 1971 and today.
This means that today's prices are 18 times as high as average prices since 1971, according to the Office for National Statistics. A pound today only buys 5.54% of what it could buy back then.

Hyman Montagu (1844-1895) was one of the great British numismatists of the 19th century. A prominent lawyer, he was vice-president of the Royal Numismatic Society in the 1880s and acquired several coin collections intact over his collecting career, including those of Addington, Brice, and the Vicomte Ponton d'Amecourt. His vast collections of British and Ancient coins were sold by Spink and Feuardent in the late 1890s, many of which were acquired by the British Museum.
