MESOPOTAMIA, Edessa
Elagabalus, CE 218-222
AE27, 15 gm
Obv: AVT K M A ANTΩNEINOC; radiate cuirassed bust left, holding shield and raising right hand.
Rev: AVP ........ EΔECCA; Tyche seated left on rock, holding corn ears; to left a column surmounted by a statue of Marsyas, river god swimming right at feet
Ref: Mionnet supplement 8, 26. Very rare. Mionnet is the only work which lists this coin with a column on the left.
This coin was in a large mixed lot and had no attribution. It has driven me a little crazy but I'm fairly certain of the attribution. If you can confirm or refute this, please drop me a note.
