Coinage of the Great Persecution(aka civic issue)
305 to 313 AD
Known as The Great Persecution of 303-311 of Diocletian. He ordered Christian buildings and homes torn down, their sacred books collected and burned, and Christians themselves were denied the protection offered other citizens by Roman law. Christians were arrested, tortured, mutilated, burned, starved, and forced to gladiatorial contests to amuse spectators. His successor Galerius (305-311) was responsible for the more draconian aspects of this persecution, and some argue that it was he who persuaded Diocletian to launch the persecution after the success of the persecution against the Manichees, members of a religion based in Persia which was at that time a resurgent threat on the Empire's Eastern border. Coins from the same time were minted as a result of these actions.
