[QUOTE="TIF, post: 2312960, member: 56859"]I should buy more empresses :) Here's a provincial I hadn't shown before. The portrait is very nice (not really a "hottie" in any portrait I've seen) but the reverse is the main attraction.

Julia Mamaea[/B] year 13, CE 233/4 tetradrachm, 24 mm, 14.36 gm Obv: IOVMAMAIACEBMHTECEKCTPA; Draped bust right, wearing stephane Rev: Serapis enthroned left, holding scepter, extending his right hand toward Cerberus seated at his feet; on throneback, Nike standing right, holding wreath and palm frond; L IΓ (date) to left, palm frond to right Ref: Emmett 3226.13 (R4); Köln 2540; Dattari (Savio) 4517; K&G 64.119 The obverse legend is a slight variant and this will be a plate coin in Emmett's next book :)[/QUOTE]
