An incomplete base or plated silver Roman denarius of Severan date, possibly of Caracalla (AD 198-217) dating to the period c.AD 212-217 (Reece period 10). Reverse: (VO?)[…]TA, Emperor(?) togate, standing left sacrificing over a tripod. Prototype of the mint of Rome. The bust type is slightly unclear due to the preservation of the coin but seems to be an older Caracalla rather than Severus, Geta, or Elagabalus. What survives of the reverse suggests a Vota type but with legend that isn't seen on Caracalla's later issues, probably indicating this is an irregular copy…

Roman plated copy of a silver denarius combining aspects of coins of Septimus Severus and Caracalla. The obverse portrait is of Septimius Severus with the legend [ ] AVGVSTVS. The full reading of AVGVSTVS is normally only found on the silver of Caracalla (RIC IV, cf. 50). However, the portrait is undoubtedly that of Severus suggesting that the die engraver has conflated two types. The reverse, [P M] TR P XVII [ ] COS III P P, appears to be a loose copy of a coin of Caracalla; P M TR P XVII IMP III COS IIII P P, Roma standing left (RIC IV, c.f. 243) with the addition of a captive to le…
