Commentary


Cette émission, l’une des dernières du règne de Philippe l’Arabe semble vraiment rare et n’était pas répertoriée par les auteurs du Roman Imperial Coinage (RIC).
This issue, one of the last from the reign of Philip the Arab, seems really rare and was not listed by the authors of the Roman Imperial Coinage (RIC)

Historical background


OTACILIA SEVERA

(+249)

Wife of Philippus I, mother of Philippus II - Augusta

Otacilie, daughter of Severus, governor of Pannonia, married Philip around 234. Philip II, their son, was born around 237. She seems to have sympathy for Christians, who enjoyed relative security under Philip's reign before the great persecution. by Trajan Decius. Her fate after the death of her husband and son is unknown. Is she murdered or does she retreat into private life? She disappears from history.
