AVT K M AVPH ANTΩNINOC AVΓOV, youthful laureate and cuirassed bust right / CEOVHPIA ΦIΛAΔEΛΦEIA TA MEΓAΛA NIKAIEΩN, ornate prize crown with two palms; IEPOC AΓON in central band. EF, dark green patina, flan crack. A superb, lifelike portrait of the young Caracalla. This unrecorded coin provides a further expansion of the games-related legends of the coins of Nicaea. "ta megala" is otherwise unattested, and in conjunction with the full legend can be read as "Severeia Philadelpheia in respect to the great ceremonies of the Nicaeans," with the central band inscription reading "The Holy Game." In the late 3rd century a complex cycle of at least fifteen games and associated religious festivals is attested for Nicaea, honoring Dionysus the founder, Apollo Pythius, and various emperors from Augustus to Gallienus. Read along with the very young portrait of Caracalla as Augustus, the legend and type can be taken to indicate that Nicaea sponsored a grand series of festivals to celebrate the joint elevation of Caracalla to Augustus and Geta to Caesar in 198 AD.

VF, medium brown patina, well-centered with a solid strike. Hoeft coll. The capricorn standards likely represent Legio XIIII Gemina Martia Victrix, the legion which had initially supported Septimius Severus in his bid for the purple. While rather distantly related to Septimius Severus through Julia Domna, though named after him, Alexander seems to have encouraged a rumor that he was in fact the illegitimate son of Caracalla and therefore the grandson of Septimius. This coin then suggests an interesting and subtle use of propaganda. Nikaia (AD 222-235) AE 22 - Severus Alexander195 viewsSeverus Alexander, 222-235 AD. AE22 (5.58g).
