The coinage of this period reflects the political and religious changes that took place in the Roman Empire. Diocletian introduced a comprehensive reform of the coinage in AD 293, which established a new system of denominations and mints, and introduced explicit mint marks as a regular feature of the coins. The reform also aimed to restore the quality and quantity of the coinage, which had suffered from inflation and debasement under the previous emperors. The new coinage consisted of four main denominations: the gold aureus, the silver argenteus, the bronze follis and the bronze radiate. The coins featured various types of portraits and reverse designs, often depicting the emperor's titles, virtues, achievements and deities.

Constantine continued to use the reformed coinage system, but also made some innovations and modifications. He introduced a new gold coin, the solidus, which became the standard unit of account and exchange for centuries. He also reduced the weight and size of the silver argenteus and renamed it as siliqua. He increased the production of bronze coins, especially the follis, which became the most common coin in circulation. He also introduced new types of reverse designs, such as the labarum (the chi-rho monogram), the wreath with VOT X or VOT XX (vows for 10 or 20 years of reign), and the legend GLORIA EXERCITVS (glory of the army), which depicted two soldiers flanking a standard.

The most significant change that Constantine made was in the realm of religion. He converted to Christianity in AD 312, after he claimed to have seen a vision of a cross in the sky before his decisive battle against Maxentius at the Milvian Bridge. He issued an edict of toleration for Christianity in AD 313, along with his co-emperor Licinius, which granted freedom of worship to all religions in the empire. He also supported the Christian church by building basilicas, granting privileges and donations, and convening councils to settle doctrinal disputes. He moved his capital from Rome to Byzantium, which he renamed as Constantinople (the city of Constantine) in AD 330. He also abolished pagan sacrifices and temples, and replaced them with Christian symbols and monuments on his coins. 66dfd1ed39
