<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Roman Collector, post: 2767554, member: 75937&quot;]Post your Juno coins, your Domnas, your Laodicea mint issues! Whatever you feel is relevant!</p><p><br /></p><p>I thought I&#039;d post this new purchase, ex- Doug Smith via John Anthony, so as to compare the two IVNO types of Domna denarii issued under Septimius Severus, the first from the Rome mint and the second from the Laodicea mint. RIC lists no IVNO types from Alexandria, Emesa, or other mints.</p><p><br /></p><p>The lettering is a different style--smaller and with few serifs--on the Laodicea issue and the drapery on Julia&#039;s bust is rather differently rendered. Furthermore, the flan is smaller, both in diameter and weight, on the Laodicea issue. </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]637586[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Julia Domna under Septimius Severus, AD 193-211</p><p>Roman AR denarius; 28.8 g, 21.0 mm</p><p>Rome, AD 209</p><p>Obv: IVLIA AVGVSTA, bare-headed and draped bust, right</p><p>Rev: IVNO, Juno, veiled, standing left, holding patera and scepter; peacock at feet, left.</p><p>Refs: RIC 559; BMCRE 38, Cohen 82; RCV 6588; Hill 1029</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]637588[/ATTACH]</p><p>Julia Domna under Septimius Severus, AD 193-211</p><p>Roman AR denarius; 2.04 g, 16.8 mm</p><p>Laodicea, AD 196</p><p>Obv: IVLIA AVGVSTA, bare-headed and draped bust, right</p><p>Rev: IVNO REGINA, Juno, veiled, standing left, holding patera and scepter; peacock at feet, left.</p><p>Refs: RIC 640; BMCRE 601, Cohen 97; RCV 6589[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
