<p>[QUOTE="Marsyas Mike, post: 4125155, member: 85693"]I think I have the same Marcus Aurelius as the OP. My attribution came out to be RIC 70, which is for a bare head right. RIC 72 is for a "Bust of Marcus Aurelius, bare-headed, cuirassed, right" - the OP is probably RIC 70 because I don't see a cuirass. At least according to OCRE:</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://numismatics.org/ocre/results?q=deity_facet%3A%22Providentia%22+AND+denomination_facet%3A%22Denarius%22+AND+portrait_facet%3A%22Marcus+Aurelius%22" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://numismatics.org/ocre/results?q=deity_facet%3A%22Providentia%22+AND+denomination_facet%3A%22Denarius%22+AND+portrait_facet%3A%22Marcus+Aurelius%22" rel="nofollow">http://numismatics.org/ocre/results?q=deity_facet:"Providentia"+AND+denomination_facet:"Denarius"+AND+portrait_facet:"Marcus+Aurelius"</a></p><p><br /></p><p>This is for a search for all Marcus Aurelius denarii with Providentia reverses - all 26 of them!
