<p>[QUOTE=&quot;brassnautilus, post: 2312517, member: 74300&quot;]Even at the tender age of 15, Severus Alexander would had access to countless women, yet he was totally obsessed with his wife - Orbiana.</p><p><br /></p><p>History tells us the emperor&#039;s mother Julia Mamaea was mean to Orbiana. When she pleaded for help from her father, Julia Mamaea had him executed for treason, then forced Orbiana to divorce Alexannder and exiled her to Libya.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Julia Mamaea came from a long line of well educated and powerful laddies, especially her mother and aunt. If she had plotted to get rid of her daughter in law (whom she had selected at the first place btw), there must had been more reasons than some titles given to Orbiana. </p><p>The logical explanation: Severus Alexander&#039;s obsession was affecting his ability to rule, so his mother had to get rid of the distraction in order to get him focused on his job. </p><p><br /></p><p>Severus Alexander had no spine and obeyed his mother, but never forgone his love for Orbiana. He went on to live another 8 years, married twice during that time, but never struck any coin for his later wives.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>All coins of Barbia Orbiana are rare except this denarii with seated concordia, this is super common and therefor I was able to afford one <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie101" alt=":woot:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> </p><p>I have coins of Aquilia Severa and Julia Paula as well. Since it&#039;s pointless to hope for anything with portrait of Annia Faustina, this mini series can probably be count as complete.</p><p><img src="http://oi64.tinypic.com/10rog8y.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p>Please share your coins of roman hotties <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie80" alt=":shame:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
