Marcus Aurelius Denarius 161-180AD obv:Aurelius as caesar rev:Felicitas standing left, holding caduceus and scepter -mottled patina, indent at 1-o-clock Here is the link http://www.omnicoin.com/coin_view.aspx?id=915861 Any info would be appreciated.

jlueke Posted August 11, 2007 Report Share Posted August 11, 2007 It seems likely that you are correct, the portrait certainly fits though it could be Antoninus Pius or another emperor of that era. I can't tell if there's any of the name in the legend and I'm not travelling with the books to check on reverse type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
