Commentary
Un seul ruban visible. Depuis la fin d’année 147, la puissance tribunicienne est renouvelée le 10 décembre. Antonin obtient sa quinzième le 10 décembre 151, cette monnaie a donc été frappée entre le 10 décembre 151 (plus vraisemblablement au début 152) jusqu’au 10 décembre 152, jour où il acquiert sa seizième puissance tribunicienne. Son quatrième consulat remonte à l’année 145.
Only one ribbon visible. Since the end of 147, the tribunician power has been renewed on December 10. Antoninus obtained his fifteenth on December 10, 151, so this coin was struck between December 10, 151 (more likely at the beginning of 152) and December 10, 152, the day he acquired his sixteenth tribunician power. His fourth consulship dates back to the year 145

Historical background
ANTONINUS PIUS
(02/25/138-03/7/161)
Augustus
Antonin was born on September 19, 86 in Lanuvium. His family is from Gaul (Nîmes). He was a wealthy senator who married Faustina the Elder between 110 and 115 and thus entered Hadrian's family by marriage. After the death of Aelius on January 1, 138, Hadrian chose Antonin to succeed him on February 25, 138, adding two adopted sons, Marcus Aurelius and Lucius Verus. Hadrian dies on July 10 and Antonin succeeds him. He must first fight to deify Hadrian, enemy of the Senate. In 139, Marc Aurèle becomes Caesar and Faustina Augusta. His reign is calm and happy and symbolizes the "Pax Romana" of the second century. In 148, he commemorated with pomp the 900th anniversary of Rome.
