Domination: Billon TETRAdrachm (4 drachms): size 21 mm

Mint: Alexandria, provincial.

Comment:
These Egyptian issues are not in RIC, but the old standard catalogue for these is Milne, where yours is no. 4492, with the pellet between TOC . CEB. They are also listed in the new Sear vol.III (though in not as much detail), where the nearest is 11831, which doesn't have the pellets in the obverse legend (Milne 4489). Other references : Curtis 1832, BMC 2403v ; Geissen 3115.

Reverse: DHMAPX EZOVCIAC (Holder of the tribunician power i.e. TR POT) S C in exergue. Eagle standing left on a palm branch facing left with wings spread and holding wreath in beak.

This coin has a little wear but must have been struck with new dies. Philip "the Arab" is portrayed as just that with very Semitic features notably the high cheekbones and full lips. It is very finely modeled and quite different from most portraits struck at Rome. Perhaps it reflects only the aesthetics of Syria or it may in fact be close to what Philip actually looked like

The city seems to be Philip's birthplace and was renamed by him. The only coinage of this Philippopolis was for Philip I, often for his deceased father. After Philip's death the coinage was ceased. The figure of the rev. usually is called Roma, but could be Athena too.

When voting be careful to compare this with other coins of the same denomination, not the smaller ones which have cause to look even more crude. While this is crude and probably easily bested, I would prefer the coin that ousts this entrant at least have as much of the name of the ruler as does this one (IWA at the top of the outer circle).

This type, struck in the first year of Hadran's reign, shows a remarkable rev. depiction: The infant Zeus crowns Amaltheia with a wreath. This is an allusion to the myth of Zeus who was fed by Amaltheia in the shape of a goat. The goat is a symbol for Aigeai as a familiar pun, because goat is Greek AIX, AIGOS. Jochen

Claudius, diobol; grain ears & caduceusClaudius, diobol; Laureate head right; date before / AVTO-KPA across field, winged caduceus between grain ears. The date is difficult to see but the bust style does look like year 2 (LB) could be right (as in FORVM description). See also my other Claudius diobols for style. Otherwise, the FORVM description (see below) has limited value as it is for the type with six stalks and no caduceus.
