hans New Member Belgium 38 Posts	Posted 03/18/2015 06:03 am I have the book ERIC II and when I look by Aelius and if I look at the coin the only possibilty would be that it is Felicitas with caduceus at the left and cornucopia right. But the problem is that it then would be a sesterius wchich it can't be of his weight. So then we have to look like you said at Hadrian. When you look at the right the symbol that it could be : cornucopia/trident/rudder and at left it could be a patera or maybe a scale. See my drawing. Report this Post to the Staff

hans New Member Belgium 38 Posts	Posted 03/18/2015 06:40 am It could also be Fortuna standing left holding patera and cornucopia. There is so one AE As by Hadrian and also the bust of Hadrian appears +/- the same (nr 1423 p 175 Eric II book)but I don't know if that coin normally has the reference S C . That is not mentioned in that book. What do you think ? Report this Post to the Staff
