<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Numisnewbiest, post: 7850848, member: 99613&quot;]Julia Domna&#039;s portrait on coins struck under Caracalla may not be as youthful-looking as those struck under Septimius Severus, but she was well into her 50s, and near the end of her life, as well. I think the coins struck under Caracalla have the more realistic portraits, and those struck under Septimius Severus were a little more idealized since he was portraying his wife to the masses. I&#039;m probably biased because this is my Julia Domna denarius:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1351952[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
