<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Terence Cheesman, post: 7447564, member: 86498&quot;]The power of this image was understood even in the eastern part of the empire. Though colonies like Antioch in Pisidia did employ the wolf and twins motif on their coins thus emphasizing their &quot;Roman&quot; ism even some cities such as Tarsos placed the image on their coins. I didn&#039;t realize that Al Kowsky had submitted a coin of Antioch in Pisidia while I was composing my thread. Good job Al. </p><p>Tarsos Ae 36 215 -217 AD. Obv Bust of Caracalla laureate draped and cuirassed seen from back. Rv. Wolf standing right head reverted suckling the twins Romulus and Remus .
