Identification of Septimius Severus AE 35
« on: February 26, 2023, 05:59:22 am »
Hi,

I have another coin with which I am stuck.

AE, 35.21 mm, 21.54 grm.

Obv.: Laureate, draped and cuirrassed bust seen from front to the right, [...] L SEP SEOV[...]ON, counterstamp seems to show a standing figure
Rv: Tyche with Kalathos, rudder and cornucopiae standing left; no legend left.

I have gone through a lot of possibilities without being successful. The obverse reminds me of Septimius's Tarsus coins but there are no Tyche coins for him in Tarsus that I could find.

Ans help is - as always - highly appreciated.

Thank you and all the best
