<p>[QUOTE="Justin Lee, post: 3568287, member: 87404"]That left side does a look a little funky. The ILUIA serifs are rather pointy and the other letters on obv and rev appear more rounded and chunky. And there looks like a faint angle further up than the A in IULIA that could be remnants from the A in PLAVTILLA? The bust and hairstyle looks like JD though and not much like Plautilla.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://iomegacollectionhome.files.wordpress.com/2019/06/20190531_160108.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://iomegacollectionhome.files.wordpress.com/2019/06/20190531_160108.jpg" rel="nofollow"><img src="https://iomegacollectionhome.files.wordpress.com/2019/06/20190531_160108.jpg?w=723" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p><b><font size="3">Plautilla, Wife of Caracalla who ruled 198-217 AD</font></b></p><p><b><font size="3">AR Denarius, Struck 202-205 AD, Rome Mint</font></b></p><p><font size="3"><b>Obverse</b>: PLAVTILLA AVGVSTA, bust of Plautilla, hair firmly waved and drawn down on neck, draped, right.</font></p><p><font size="3"><b>Reverse</b>: VENVS VICTRIX, Venus, naked to waist, standing left, holding apple in extended right hand and palm in left hand, resting left elbow on shield; at feet, left, Cupid.</font></p><p><font size="3"><b>References</b>: RIC IV 369</font></p><p><font size="3"><b>Size</b>: 21mm, 3.24g</font>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
