Commodus from Nicaea Cilibanorum, Lydia / unlisted ?
« on: October 22, 2017, 10:25:40 am »
Dear Board,

I have here a Commodus from Nicaea Cilibanorum, Lydia that might be unlisted. I can't find it in the litterature available to me, neither on line, among others, RPC online nor Isegrim does not list this coin. All the usual litterature do neither list it.

There's a coin of Marcus Aurelius with a similar reverse, RPC temp 1220.

obv: M AVRHLIOC KOMODOC

rev: KILBIANWN PERI NEIKEAN

diameter: 29 mm

weight: 14.6 g

Any advice appreciated !

A similar Commodus example ( several differences like the position of the eagle, older Commodus)  on acsearch "Unpublished in the standard references"

If RPC does not list it, you may submit your coin pictures and info to them:
