Bing Pillar of the Community United States 4253 Posts	Posted 06/29/2012 2:39 pm I'm not certain, but I think this looks more like Julia Domna with Tyche reverse. Perhaps something like: http://wildwinds.com/coins/ric/juli...mov_4213.jpg Report this Post to the Staff

t0rress Pillar of the Community Bulgaria 843 Posts	Posted 06/29/2012 4:41 pm but on the reverse I think that its Caracalla!?! Report this Post to the Staff
Bing Pillar of the Community United States 4253 Posts	Posted 06/29/2012 5:33 pm If the reverse is Caracalla, wouldn't that make the obverse Julia Domna? Report this Post to the Staff

dougsmit Pillar of the Community United States 1549 Posts	Posted 06/29/2012 6:50 pm Domna at Philippopolis is my guess. Report this Post to the Staff
Bing Pillar of the Community United States 4253 Posts	Posted 06/29/2012 7:05 pm I can't seem to put my hands on it, but I still say that the reverse is the turreted & veiled head of Tyche. I do not have great sources for provincial coins, but someone will probably be able to ID it soon. I'll be watching Regards, Report this Post to the Staff
