Diadumenian for AELIA CAPITOLINA - looking for references
« on: January 31, 2024, 06:45:21 am »
Good morning
i found this interesting piece in a bunch of provincial coins from Judaea.
Anyone could advice me of some references? unfortunately i dont own any essential books as Kadman or Rosenberger and online i wasnt able to find any other specimen, so i suspect is a scarce type.
AE 4,68 gr for 18,1 mm. - Axis 12
Obverse: laureate, draped and cuirassed? bust of Diadumenian right and the legend DIADVME_NIANVS C (without the M OP normally added on the other pieces of this mint.
Reverse: COL AEL CAP C_OMM P F Tyche seated left on throne? holding Cornucopia and Patera (similiar to the Elagabalus' specimen in RPC website) https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/coins/6/9028
Thanks in advance.

Amazing coin, congratulations! I have only seen one additional example of this type in private hands. Easily several hundred dollars.
