This highly eroded
Caracalla coin is attributed to the city of Tire.
the
legend on the
obverse is
AVT K MA / ANTWNEINOC CE the
bust seems to me only a graduate.
On the
reverse it ends with TO Delta.
has a
star between the legs of the
eagle.
I am not convinced that the
attribution to Tire is correct.
I tried in other cities that have a similar
reverse, but I did not find anything that meets all the requirements of this coin, especially the
legend to the
obverse, which I found only for
Antioch, but I would exclude this city as Delta-E misses, all the heads of the eagles present in the
McAlee, however, are turned to the right, while this is turned to the left.
I would ask for
help with
his certain classification.
Thanks Roberto
