Medieval Pillar of the Community 3772 Posts	Posted 12/08/2014 06:22 am AE ~19, reverse: large SC, above DE, below eagle, all in laurel wreath Plant#2619 has that reverse for Elagabalus in Antioch ad Orotem, but with radiate head left and (seemingly) a shorter inscription. GIC#3098 has laureate head of Elagabalus left but also seemingly a slightly shorter inscription - the reverse is a large DE in a laurel wreath. Unfortunately have no access to BMC 20 atm, does anyone know if that is available for download anywhere? Or does anyone have BMC 20 on hand? GIC#3098 is BMC 20.205,449, so the coin should be close. Or does anyone think that this is a different emperor? All comments welcome. Report this Post to the Staff

Medieval Pillar of the Community 3772 Posts	Posted 12/09/2014 12:04 am Thanks. He looks a little 'beefier' normally, but as per GIC he issued an AE23 with a reserve of large SC and eagle below, no mention of DE above though - really need to get hold of BMC. Report this Post to the Staff
