Moesia inferior, Nikopolis ad Istrum, 25. Diadumenian, HrHJ (2018) 8.25.38.11
Diadumenian, AD 217-218
AE 25, 8.83g, 25.06mm, 45°
struck under governor Statius Longinus
obv. [K M OPPELI DIA - DOVMENIANOC]
Bust, draped, bare-headed, r.
rev. [VP CTA LONGINOV] NI - KOPOLITWN PROC IC [TRON?]
Tyche Euposia, wearing kalathos, stg. frontal, head l.(?), holding cornucopiae in l. arm and rudder in 
outstretched r. hand; on the cornucopiae std. a small child (Ploutos) l.!
ref. a) AMNG I/1, 1868 var. (has break as N - IKO)
       b) Varbanov (engl.) 3716 (cites AMNG 1868 but writes 'child seated at her feet')
       c) Hristova/Hoeft/Jekov (2018) No. 8.25.38.11

Even though the coin is in a bad state Ploutos can clearly be seen! The goddess is the same as on No. 8.25.38.9 with head turned l.! Sadly all depicted coins are very worn.
