[QUOTE="Valentinian, post: 2765719, member: 44316"]There is some evidence some quadrantes were issued under Marcus.

RIC III, page 313, 1255 "uncertain" [ruler] but "R2" under Marcus Aurelius. Head right. The portrait looks a lot like Antoninus Pius. No legend. METAL AVRELIA/NVS in wreath. The name of the mine suggests Marcus. He could be honoring his adoptive father with the portrait. BMC III --, but BMC IV page 687 has it not in the BM but cited from a sale.[/QUOTE]
