Commentary


Il revient à l’école anglaise et aux travaux de P. V. Hill, The dating and arrangement of the Undated Coins of Rome AD. 98-148, Londres 1970, d’avoir reclassé les différentes émissions de l’atelier de Rome, grâce à la théorie des cycles et d’avoir mis en lumière l’organisation de l’atelier de Rome qui travaille en officines et non pas en fonction du métal comme l’avaient décrit les numismates du XIXe siècle. Il faut bien restituer à Antonin césar ce monnayage qui était donné par P. V. Hill aux premières émissions d’Antonin Auguste. Ce denier est en fait beaucoup plus rare que ne le laissent envisager les ouvrages généraux. Un des rares deniers d’Antonin frappé sous le règne d’Hadrien.
It is due to the English school and the work of PV Hill, The dating and arrangement of the Undated Coins of Rome AD. 98-148, London 1970, to have reclassified the different issues of the mint of Rome, thanks to the theory of cycles and to have highlighted the organization of the mint of Rome which worked in officinae and not according to the metal as the numismatists of the 19th century had described. It is necessary to restore to Antoninus Caesar this coinage which was given by PV Hill to the first issues of Antoninus Augustus. This denarius is in fact much rarer than general works suggest. One of the rare Antoninus denarii struck during the reign of Hadrian

Historical background


ANTONINUS PIUS

(02/25/138-03/7/161)

Caesar

After the death of Aélius on January 1, 138, Hadrian, ill, must find a new Caesar. The climate of the beginning of the year 138 is well rendered by Mr. Yourcenar in the “Memoirs of Hadrian”. Hadrian adopts Antonin, a distant relative of his family. On the other hand, Hadrian obliges Antonin to jointly adopt Marc Aurèle, son of Annius Vérus and Lucius Vérus, son of Aélius. Hadrian, having settled his estate and dismissed his brother-in-law and the latter's grandson, could die peacefully on July 10, 138. Hated by the Senate, he was refused apotheosis. It will take the pugnacity of Antoninus to make him deified.
