[QUOTE="Marsyas Mike, post: 5155285, member: 85693"]Interesting coins and research, maridvnvm. Here is an odd Julia Domna imitation that is known from other examples; it has a muled reverse of Caracalla: [IMG]https://www.cointalk.com/attachments/julia-domna-denarius-fides-pub-mar-2020-0-jpg.1090609/[/IMG] [B]Julia Domna Æ (?) Denarius (c. 196-211 A.D.) Unknown / Unofficial Mint[/B] IVLIA D AVGVSTA draped bust right / FIDES PVBLICA, Fides standing right, holding corn-ears and basket of fruit. RIC IV -; BMCRE -; RSC III - (Unofficial issue; see notes) (2.46 grams / 16 mm) "This coin combines the obverse of a Julia Domna denarius with reverse of a Caracalla denarius. The style is not official. It is an ancient counterfeit. The core is probably base metal." [URL]http://www.forumancientcoins.com/catalog/roman-and-greek-coins.asp?zpg=8921[/URL] [B]Note: [/B] Per OCRE, there are eight FIDES PVBLICA types for Caracalla: RIC 8, 19, 24Aa, 24Ab, 24a, 24b, 330A and 334. Here's another one: a Julia Domna with an implausible reverse - my attribution notes come Roman Collector from my original post (thanks again, RC!).

Unknown Mint[/B] IVLIA AVGVSTA bust right / IMP[ERII FELI]CITAS, standing female facing, head right, holding grain or thunderbolt (?) in left hand, column or altar to right (?)
