[QUOTE="Justin Lee, post: 3533603, member: 87404"][B][SIZE=6]-- Tiberius -------------------------[/SIZE][/B] Let’s move on to [B]Tiberius[/B], who ruled from [B]14 to 37 AD[/B]. In the year 19 AD, there was an earthquake in Syria, and though the epicenter was in Sidon (modern day Lebanon, ~350km south of Antioch), it was felt in Antioch and throughout Syria ([URL='https://www.annalsofgeophysics.eu/index.php/annals/article/view/3206']Sbeinati, Darawcheh, Mouty, 2005[/URL]). This might have stricken fear in the people based on the great devastation that [URL='https://www.cointalk.com/threads/the-earthquake-of-17-ad.332468/']another earthquake caused in Lydia two years prior[/URL]. Also in 19 AD, on October 10th Germanicus dies in Antioch under suspicious circumstances (was he poisoned by Gnaeus Calpurnius Piso, the governor of Syria?). Here are my two "SC & Wreath" types of Tiberius: [INDENT][B]Struck 31-32 AD Obverse[/B]: TI CAESAR AVG TR POT XXXIII, Laureate head right. [B]Reverse[/B]: S·C, legend within laurel wreath of six leaves fastened at top with pellet, all between inner and outer borders. [B]References[/B]: RPC I 4272, McAlee 217b[/INDENT] [IMG]https://iomegacollectionhome.files.wordpress.com/2019/04/collagemaker_20190326_222412048.jpg[/IMG] [SIZE=3][B]Size[/B]: 26mm, 14.0g[/SIZE] [IMG]https://iomegacollectionhome.files.wordpress.com/2019/04/collagemaker_20190326_222531207.jpg[/IMG] [SIZE=3][B]Size[/B]: 27.5mm, 14.8g[/SIZE] [B]What Antioch Tiberius coins do you have? Do you have a different type you can share? [/B][/QUOTE]
