Etenna (AD 193-211) AE 32 - Septimius Severus420 viewsSeptimius Severus, 193-211 AD. AE32 (19.74g, 6h).

VF, brown patina, minor roughness. Very rare, only two known to von Aulock. The exact nature of the unusual monument on the reverse, which serves as a recurring type on the coinage of Etenna, is uncertain. While some coins show an abstract design on the face of the monument (see, for example, von Aulock 588) others clearly show a series of facing busts (as on the current coin). We might suppose that this was a pantheistic monument honoring the principal deities of Etenna. Mopsos (AD 138-161) Tetradrachm - Antoninus Pius419 viewsAntoninus Pius, 138-161 AD.

Only two cited in RPC and three on CoinArchives. Possibly the sixth and finest known. A rare and interesting instance of a prominent local woman signing her city’s coinage.

This high honor of having her name appear on Laodicea’s coinage very likely stemmed from her belonging to the Zenonid family, one of the wealthiest and most powerful in Asia Minor.
