Hello all, Just a quick shout out for some ID help with this AE17, 4.9g, Antoninus Pius Roman Provincial. Its mainly the reverse I`m stuck with. Is it Homonia, Concordia or Tyche? I`ve trawled through wildwinds and VCoins sites but cannot reach a satisfactory conclusion. Any help appreciated.
Homonoia is Greek for Concordia, and this is a Greek coin (from Philippopolis). She has a cornucopia and offers a wreath (?). I don’t see a crenellated headdress, so - maybe not Tyche. I’m in a café at the moment and can’t look anything up. But this is my reasoning.
Yes, the closest match i got to was http://www.wildwinds.com/coins/ric/antoninus_pius/_philippopolis_AE18_Moushmov_5112.jpg and this one http://www.wildwinds.com/coins/ric/antoninus_pius/_philippopolis_Varbanov_771.jpg I didn’t realise just how many provincials Antoninus Pius had!! Cheers
