Aurelius-antioch
« on: December 19, 2014, 11:44:53 am »
This ae 18 for 5.5 grams, I attributed to Marcus Aurelis.
Coin-Antioch Syria with the reverse and a classical SC A below.
When I went I found it difficult to classify, although the book of McAlee.
The only letters that can not read very well: AVHPΛ ......, are located on the upper right to fall down; This legend is only partial in the number 592 of the Book of McAlee and is properly running deck the possibility of a letter A below.
The problem is that this type of coin has eight elements that make up the Laureal wreath on the reverse, while this coin has six.
As a type of coin with six elements is the number 593, also with the possibility of an A at the bottom, but this legend has AVTKPA ........ CEB.
Possimo us in case of variation of one of two types? And if you what number makes variant? Or it could be a novel?
I thank those who give me help to solve this classification.
regards Roberto
