Commentary
Poids léger. Pour ce type avec ce type de buste à gauche, beaucoup plus rare, Thibaut Marchal a relevé vingt-cinq exemplaires. Au revers, la légende AEQVITAS AVG est au singulier alors que nous avons deux augustes, Philippe I et son fils Philippe II, normalement indiqué par le doublement du G pour AVGG. Pour Thibaut Marchal, l’absence du second G serait le moyen que les graveurs de l’atelier d’Antioche aurait utilisé pour différencier les deuxième et troisième émission de l’atelier.

For Thibaut Marchal, the absence of the second G would be the means that the engravers of the Antioch workshop would have used to differentiate the second and third issues of the workshop
