<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Terence Cheesman, post: 4318852, member: 86498&quot;]In this age of virtual lock down it is somewhat appropriate to post a sestertius of the ultimate Roman homebody Antoninus Pius. Unlike his rather restless predecessor Hadrian, Pius seems to have never left Italy. Back in February I purchased this coin at an auction. That seems so long ago. The reverse of this coin is rather interesting. It depicts Italia seated on a starry globe. On my coin she is depicted with a turreted crown. Okay Sestertius of Antoninus Pius. 141-143 A.D. RIC 746a&nbsp; Obv. Head right laureate Rv. Italia seated left. 27.14 grms 34 mm Photo by W. Hansen[ATTACH=full]1097681[/ATTACH] Feel free to post any coin of Pius or Hadrian or anything you are working on because you are stuck at home.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
