    Fairly common but it's always nice to have an antoninianus in your collection (e.g. double denarius). The radiate crown means "double." Keep in mind that these were typically about 1.5-1.6x the weight of a denarius, so the government got a little extra value out of the denomination. Just ten years later the government could no longer afford to issue these coins to meet fiscal obligations and switched to a bronze alloy coin with a silver wash. Not good.
