Commentary


Rubans de type 3. Ptéryges larges sous le paludamentum. Les aureurs du Roman Provincial Coinage ont recensé 6 exemplaires avec un poids moyen de 12,46 g. Ce type semble plus rare que ne le laissent supposer les ouvrages généraux. C’est la première fois que nous proposons un exemplaire à la vente.
Type 3 ribbons. Large pteryga under the paludamentum. The authors of the Roman Provincial Coinage have identified 6 examples with an average weight of 12.46 g. This type seems rarer than general works suggest. This is the first time we are offering a example for sale.

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.
