| Reference | RIC I 95 | Bronze As 27mm (10.52 grams) Rome mint, 41-42 A.D.
There was a coin issued with his mother's, Antonia's, portrait with her as Constantia on the reverse
Britain was an attractive target for Rome because of its material wealth — particularly mines and slaves
However, as the Flavians became established, they needed to emphasize their own credentials more, and their references to Claudius ceased
There is also a reference to Claudius' suppression of one of the coups against him in the movie Gladiator , though the incident is entirely fictional
Additionally, the coin is inside it's own protective coin flip (holder), with a 2x2 inch description of the coin matching the individual number on the COA
