<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Roman Collector, post: 4845049, member: 75937&quot;]This little coin has been neglected. I purchased it more than two years ago from [USER=42773]@John Anthony[/USER] , but never got around to photographing it until this evening. In the course of doing so, I noticed it shared an obverse die with another coin I have in my collection but with a different reverse type. The die-match allows me to reconstruct the obverse legend with certainty.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1169724[/ATTACH]</p><p>Septimius Severus, AD 193-211.</p><p>Roman Provincial Æ assarion, 17.2 mm, 3.08 g, 1 h.</p><p>Moesia Inferior, Marcianopolis.</p><p>Obv: ΑV Κ Λ CΕ|CΕVΗΡΟ, laureate and draped bust right.</p><p>Rev: ΜΑΡΚΙΑΝΟ|ΠΟΛΙΤΩΝ, Homonoia wearing kalathos, standing left, holding patera and cornucopiae.</p><p>Refs: BMC 7; AMNG 590; Varbanov 734.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1169728[/ATTACH]</p><p>Septimius Severus, AD 193-211.</p><p>Roman Provincial Æ assarion, 16.4 mm, 2.34 g, 1 h.</p><p>Moesia Inferior, Marcianopolis.</p><p>Obv: ΑV Κ Λ CΕ|CΕVΗΡΟ, laureate and draped bust right.</p><p>Rev: ΜΑΡΚΙΑΝΟ|ΠΟΛΙΤΩΝ, eagle standing facing, head right.</p><p>Refs: Moushmov 391a var.
