<p>[QUOTE=&quot;gsimonel, post: 3211141, member: 82549&quot;]I never know whether to call this type of coin an antoninianus or a double denarius.

If it is bronze, with or without a silver wash, I call it an antoninianus.</p><p><br /></p><p>Anyway, here&#039;s my Philip, Jr.:</p><p><img src="http://feltemp.com/Images/DownwardSpiral/PhilipII.JPG" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>Silver Double Denarius</p><p>Rome mint, A.D. 244-246</p><p>Obv: M IVL PHILIPPVS CAES</p><p>Rev: PRINCIPI IVVENT - Philip II, standing right, holding globe and scepter</p><p>RIC 216(c)</p><p>22mm, 4.4g.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
