11.77gr, 26mm.
Rome, struck between December 176 A.D. and early 177 A.D.
This coin matches BMCRE 1615. No coin in RIC matches it exactly. The obverse matches RIC III type 1193, but the reverse appears to be a variation of RIC III type 1199, both on page 307.
According to the historian Capitolinus, the emperor encountered a dangerous storm on a voyage home from the east, thus this coin is likely to celebrate the safe return of the emperor.fnord123Jan 08, 2011
