Commentary


Ce type semble beaucoup plus rare que ne le laissent supposer les ouvrages généraux. Nous suivons les conclusions de Thibaut Marchal qui, dans sa base internet a répertorié actuellement 847 antoniniens de l’atelier d’Antioche, dont 28 pour ce revers de Philippe II auguste. Néanmoins, les monnaies d’Antioche restent rares pour cette période, en particulier pour ce revers.

Historical background


PHILIPPUS II

(05/244-09/249)

Augustus

Philip II, son of Philip the Arab and Otacilia Severa, was named Augustus in 247. He participated in the commemoration of the millennium of Rome which began on April 21, 247. Philip, his father, was killed at the battle of Verona . Philip II was assassinated shortly thereafter. We do not know what happened to Otacilia Sévéra. Philip II was made Caesar shortly after the accession of his father who awarded him the title of prince of youth.
