<p>[QUOTE=&quot;TTerrier, post: 8199612, member: 76835&quot;]Here is an Antoninus Pius bronze</p><p><br /></p><p>13 gm, 24mm; laureate draped and cuirassed bust of A Pius right; IMP ANTONINVS AVG PP P; Tyche standing left resting foot on ???, holding bust and long sceptre, all within tetrastyle temple; CAC in exergue.&nbsp; Ref Meshorer 20, Rosenberger 10.&nbsp; I don&#039;t have either one of these references but I guess that the reverse legend is short for <i><b>C</b></i>olonia <i><b>A</b></i>elia <i><b>C</b></i>apitolina.</p><p><br /></p><p>I would be interested to hear whether anyone knows if the temple represented on the coin refers to an actual structure - by this time the Romans must have rebuilt a good portion of the city.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1436660[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
