Caracalla Provincial

[SRukke]

No size or weight. Looking for references or city help.

The city is Tarsus in Cilicia.

Thank you.

Proving a bit elusive. Trying everything with Caracalla and what I assume is Zeus.

The reverse is Athena seated left holding Nike in right.  The only ref I have is BMC Cilicia pg 194, 181.  Obverse legend is AVT K M AVP CEVHPOC ANTWNEINOC CEB with  -  across the fields.  The reverse legend is incomplete in BMC.  Someone with SNG France or Levante should be able to give you a complete reverse legend.

Well this definitely helps. Thank you very much. I'll keep searching but you've given me some good info.

This should help you figure your legends out.  It may be the same reverse die.

Pretty sure it's an obverse and reverse die match.

Thank you very much for the link.

Is this considered a medallion? It is 35.88mm and 22.3g. I have only the one reference cited below and haven't found much else on this coin.

Tarsos simply minted large coins. You'll often find them called medallions but they're just coins.

Thanks. It's by far the largest coin I have, other than some Ptolemy coins.

You mean there's more than one Benito?

[benito]

Yes. Getting back to nicknames I am not benito the impotent.
BTW. What about the part of the message asking for how many assarion for the so called medallion.
