ROMAN EMPIRE PROVINCIAL, Elagabalus, AE30, Etenna in Pisidia, Zeus enthroned right, unlisted
|
Etenna in Pisidia, Elagabalus, 218-222 AD.
Æ30 (29-30mm / 16.42 g),
Obv.: [AY] K M AYP - ANT[ΩNEINO] , laureate, draped and cuirassed bust right.
Rev.: ETEN - NEΩ[N] , Zeus enthroned right, holding scepter. Unlisted, same obv. die as von Aulock, Pisidien II, no. 568, pl. 13 ; Rev: cf. ANS 1981.40.23 .
Curtis Clay:
This coin seems to be from the same obv. die as von Aulock, Pisidien II, no. 568, pl. 13. ANTWNEINO before face, vA attributes to Elagabalus, though the same coin, in Athens, had earlier been published as Caracalla.
Zeus seated right is a new type for Elagabalus at this mint, though vA has it both earlier, for Septimius and for Caracalla under Septimius, and later, for Sev. Alex. and Tranquillina.
