Commodus and Annius Verus, Caesars, 166 - 170 A.D., Tarsus, Cilicia
|Cilicia|, |Commodus| |and| |Annius| |Verus,| |Caesars,| |166| |-| |170| |A.D.,| |Tarsus,| |Cilicia|, The brothers Annius Verus and Commodus, sons of Marcus Aurelius and Faustina the Younger, were made caesars in 166 A.D. Annius Verus died at age 7 of natural causes in Rome on 10 September 169. His younger brother Commodus became his father's heir and later successor to his father's throne. The portraits are obviously unrealistic - the caesars were small boys when the coin was struck.
