Untitled work
Description
Au droit : Faustine l'Ancienne, très aimée par son époux, l'empereur Antonin le Pieux, eut une vie brève. Cette monnaie provinciale romaine date probablement du décès de l'impératrice, en 141. Ce très rare bronze, frappé à Chypre, est un monnayage dit provincial : le pouvoir central romain a laissé les cités grecques conquises poursuivre leurs émissions monétaires de bronze en grec, langue de la partie orientale de l'Empire. Au revers : Des enfants conçus par Antonin et Faustine avant 138, seule survécut Faustine la Jeune. Marcus Galerius Antoninus mourut sans doute, comme son frère, en 138. Cette monnaie posthume rend très probable l'existence d'un portrait sculpté officiel de cet enfant. Texte : Pascal Capus, 2016
