<p>[QUOTE=&quot;PillarsOfEternity, post: 4664327, member: 106519&quot;]I’d like to share my latest purchase, an inexpensive but welcome addition to my collection. </p><p><br /></p><p>RIC assigns this type to Issue 2 at Rome, A.D. 245 (p.58), suggesting that it complements the ADVENTVS AVGG type of the same issue: ‘The return of Philip from the East is accompanied by a second largesse.’ (p.60). However, it is later placed more broadly as undated, A.D. 244-247 (pp.71-72). Samuel Eddy agrees with the placement of Issue 2 at Rome, A.D. 245. I’ve read online that Van Meter suggests a date of A.D. 247, but I don’t have a copy of his book - I wonder if anyone on CT would be kind enough to verify this comment and confirm if Van Meter gives any reason for this dating/placement? </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1150446[/ATTACH] </p><p><b>Philip I</b></p><p>AR Antoninianus, 3.87g</p><p>Obv: IMP M IVL PHILIPPVS AVG; Radiate, draped and cuirassed bust right.</p><p>Rev: LIBERALITAS AVG II; Liberalitas stg. l., holding abacus and cornucopiae.</p><p>Mint: Rome, A.D. 244-247</p><p>References: RIC IV 38b, RSC 87</p><p><br /></p><p>Please share your coins of Philip I, Liberalitas, or anything you feel is relevant.</p><p><br /></p><p>- Daniel[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
