Severus Alexander, RSC 44, RIC 137, Probable Modern Fake122 viewsSilver denarius, RSC 44, RIC 137, gVF, Rome mint, 233 - 235 A.D.; obverse IMP C M AVR SEV ALEXAND AVG, laureate, draped and cuirassed bust right; reverse FELICITAS AVG, Felicitas standing left holding patera over altar and long caduceus; rare. Scarce to rare with no specimens in the online archives and 5 specimens in the Reka Devnia hoard. Definitely not an official coin - probably modern but some possibility of an ancient counterfeit. Middle East origin. Dr. Prokopov notes doubtful patina color, unnatural surface texture, odd style and letters. If you see a match please note it in the comments. Joe Sermarini
