Commentary
Poids léger. Portrait tout à fait exceptionnel pour cette émission avec la présence de la cuirasse sous le paludamentum. Semble complètement inédit et non répertorié. Manque aux principaux ouvrages consultés.
Lightweight. A truly exceptional portrait for this issue, with the presence of the breastplate under the paludamentum. It appears to be completely unpublished and unlisted. Missing from the main works consulted.

Historical background
ELAGABALUS
(16/05/218-12/03/222)
Proclaimed emperor on May 16, 218, Elagabalus, sole august until the end of June or the beginning of July, left Syria to join Rome. Elagabalus stops at Nicomedia. He spent the whole winter there and fell ill. It was therefore in this city that he took up his second consulship. Elagabal will not arrive in Rome until July or September 219, bringing the black stone of his cult to install him in his capital. He will never return to Syria, quickly assassinated after an unequaled reign of turpitude and disorder.
