<p>[QUOTE=&quot;PeteB, post: 3400387, member: 99412&quot;][ATTACH=full]902977[/ATTACH] Plautilla, wife of Caracalla. Nicopolis, Moesia Inferior; Æ 25. Her marriage to Caracalla was demanded by his father, the Roman emperor Septimius Severus, since Plautilla&#039;s father, Plautianus, was an old friend of Septimius Severus (who had appointed him as his praetorian prefect). Her father fell out of favor in 205 A.D., whereupon she was banished to the Lipari islands. She was murdered by Caracalla&#039;s order in 211 A.D. Obv: Her bust, right. Rev: Aphrodite standing nude, facing, and modestly covering herself with her hands. AMNG (Pick)___, BMC___ (a single example for Plautilla, with different reverse), SNG Copenhagen___ (NO examples for Plautilla!). A single example cited by Varbanov, #3202<b>.</b>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
