Otacilia Severa AR Antoninianus. M OTACIL SEVERA AVG, diademed, draped bust right on crescent / CONCORDIA AVGG, Concordia seated left with patera & cornucopiae Came with a lot of 6 coins in a cherrywood box designated "The rise and fall of the Roman Empire." Included a denarius of Hadrian, Denarius of Vespasian, an anonymous RR denarius, and two LRB's. The Hadrian and this are the only ones worth posting.
The most common of her, which is what mine is too. Yours also has a prettier portrait, like mine, where some have her looking a bit plumper. Mine:
Very nice coins. She is one I do not have yet that are somewhat affordable to my budget. I will in the future. The engraving style is pretty good on Randy's coin, I agree.
I've got an example of her on my wish/to buy list, but I doubt I'll get it anytime soon. Nice coins BTW.
