<p>[QUOTE="gsimonel, post: 3877573, member: 82549"]This coin has been in my collection and on my emperors page for many years. I received it without any ID information in a large batch of uncleaned coins. Lately, however, I've wonder if I've mis-attributed it, since I still cannot find any other examples. Is it possible that it is someone other than Serapis on the reverse? Here is how I've currently listed it:</p><p><img src="http://feltemp.com/Images/GoldenAge/MarcusAurelius.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><b>Marcus Aurelius</b></p><p><i>Caesar, A.D. 139-161</i></p><p><i>Augustus, A.D. 161-180</i></p><p>Provincial Bronze (AE26)</p><p>Moesia Inferior, Nikopolis ad Istrum, before A.D. 161</p><p>Obv: AVPHΛIOC OVHPOC KAICAP</p><p>Rev: NEIKOΠOΛEITΩNΠPOC IC - Serapis, standing left, holding scepter and sacrificing with patera over altar.</p><p>Unlisted in Moushmov or RPC; unpublished?</p><p>26mm, 11.0g.</p><p><br /></p><p>Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
