Commodus, AD 172-192
AE 17, 3.52g, 16.94mm, 180°

        Head, laureate, r.

       Female figure in long garment and mantle, veiled, stg. facing, head r., r. hand in fold of mantle before 
       body, holding in lowered l. hand unidentified object lookinh like a big loop (bridle?) 
ref. a) not in AMNG
           cf. AMNG I/1 1246 (different rev. legend, different object!)
       b) Varbanov (engl.) 2158 corr. (writes ICT in error)
       c) Hristova/Hoeft/Jekov (2018) No. 8.10.35.3

The figure on the reverse is named:
Nemesis with bridle (by Pick)
Isis with hydria (by Varbanov)
Asklepios with snake-stuff (by Hristova/Jekov)
I think there were two different types confused.
