Broad period: ROMAN
County: Shropshire
Workflow stage: Awaiting validation
A silver denarius of Sabina struck during the period AD 128 to 137 AD. IVNONI REGINAE reverse. Rome mint. RIC Vol II, p. 386 ref: 395a. There appears to be a flaw in the die used for the obverse of this coin. This result in a circular/crescental feature to the right of the bust. The form of the 'STA' in the legend SABINA AVGVSTA is also odd.
