Benefactor DonnaML Posted September 23 · Benefactor Benefactor Share Posted September 23 20 hours ago, Ocatarinetabellatchitchix said: There are three different antoniniani with the reverse SERAPI COMITI AVG. The rarest one is with the vertical scepter (# 305), there are two with the transverse sceptre (# 303-304), but one has a prow of ship at feet like yours (# 304). And definitely from Trier, notwithstanding the curly hair... Do I understand correctly that my coin's correct number in the newly-published edition of the RIC Gallic Empire volume is RIC V.4 304 (2nd ed. 2023), which corresponds to Mairat 362? And that Mairat is, in fact, the author of the new RIC volume? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justus Posted yesterday at 10:27 AM · Member Author Share Posted yesterday at 10:27 AM The imperial bust on the radiatus with the reverse “SERAPI C – OMITI AVG” (Mairat 364) from my collection also has this curly hairstyle, which distinguishes this type from other radiati minted in Trier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
