    Hello together,

    I think i've got a new brainteaser for you..:rolleyes:

    I'm not really sure if it 's a "Antoninus Pius" or "Caracalla" ? so what I can read is this on the Rv:

    VICT BRIT TRP XIIII and something behind ..perhaps COS III ?

    I went through a lot of coins in the RIC, but i cant find this revers with them figures on it..:(

    Sorry, I have no weight, but the dimension is 30mm.Perhaps somebody can help..:rolleyes:

    greetings from Cologne/Germany,

    Niloc

    :mouth:

    What makes you say that? If that looks like Caracalla, I look like Sean Connery.

    An ancient counterfeit of the type termed by Cohen "Cast in Gaul."

    M AVREL ANTONINVS PIVS AVG BRIT
    Victory erecting trophy, foot set on helmet; on right, Britannia with hands behind back; at her feet, a captive seated left
