Title: Salonina with Pudicitia reverse
Post by: Victor on July 23, 2012, 11:02:52 AM

I am trying to find a reference for this coin...if there is one.

Salonina
Æ Antoninianus
A.D. 253-268
20x21mm  3.5gm
SALONINA AVG, diademed draped bust right on crescent.
PVDICITIA AVG, Pudicitia seated left, raising veil and holding sceptre.

I only saw examples with VI in exergue. The only ones I saw like this (except they were in silver) with nothing in the exergue were  for other empresses- Julia Maesa, Herennia Etruscilla and Otacilia Severa. Maybe this one is unrecorded or an earlier die from another Empress was used?


Edit- It is RIC V Rome 25

Thank you for the link, but that coin has a star in the left field and what looks like a T in the exergue, while my example does not have any marks at all.
