Commentary


Ce type semble beaucoup plus rare que ne le laissent supposer les ouvrages généraux. Le type de revers est décrit comme l’Équité, il pourrait s’agir en fait de Némésis à cause de la roue placée aux pieds de l’entité.
This type seems much rarer than general works suggest. The reverse type is described as Equity, it could actually be Nemesis because of the wheel placed at the entity's feet

Historical background


DIADUMENIAN

(04/217-8/06/218)

Caesar

Diadumenian becomes Caesar when his father Macrin is proclaimed august in April 217. He receives the title of prince of youth. Macrinus brings him into the Severian family by making him take the prænomen of Antoninus, as he himself seized that of Severus. After the proclamation of Elagabalus, Macrinus raised his son to august in May 218 for a very short period. Beaten in June, Macrin and Diaduménien fled. The latter is caught while trying to pass to the Parthians by crossing the Euphrates. He is killed.
