Anyway this is my first coin of 2022 and it's a very nice Roman silver Denarius of Empress Bruttia Crispina and consort to Commodus and she did not produce an heir for him. So after ten years of marriage, Crispina was falsely charged with adultery by her husband and was banished to the island of Capri in 188, where she was later executed. After her banishment, Commodus did not marry again but took on a mistress, a woman named Marcia, who was later said to have conspired in his murder. The coin info: MINT: Rome OBVERSE; CRISPINA AVGVSTA Draped bust right. REVERSE; CONCORDIA Concordia standing left, holding patera and cornucopia. REFERENCE: RIC 278. Report this Post to the Staff
