    Well my AP has arived from Germany today. She once again completes my "5 Good Emperors" set. It looks like Annona on the reverse. I think the ID is RIC-210 or Sear 1246. :rolleyes:

    The closest match that I can find is RIC 251.

    I read somewhere that there are over 10,000 known different types of coins
    issued by Antoninus Pius during his long reign.
