OTACILIA SEVERA
wife of Philip I

Mint and Year: Rome - undated (AD 246-248)
Weight:      3.26 grams
Die axis:    185 degrees
Rarity:     scarce

              

Reverse: "IVNO CONSERVAT"
     Juno (the consort of Jupiter) veiled, standing left, holding patera and scepter.

Note:  RIC notes that this coin is probably issued from Antioch but since there is uncertainty, leaves it under Rome.

Mint and Year: Local issue - undated (after AD 249)
Weight:      4.03 grams
Die axis:    315 degrees
Rarity:     3 known specimens of this obverse legend and reverse

              

Reverse: "IVNO CONSEAVΛT"
     Juno (the consort of Jupiter) veiled, standing left, holding patera and scepter.

Note:  I have been shown two other specimens of this obverse with a blundered reverse legend.  Both other specimens are fourees.  This example, although not showing any loss of plating could also be a forree or billon.  As this obverse die has been used for reverses issued under Trajan Decius, it was probably struck during or after his reign.

Mint and Year: Antioch - undated (AD 246-248)
Weight:      4.36 grams
Die axis:    40 degrees
Rarity:     Rare

              

Reverse: "IVNO CONSERVATRIX"
     Juno (the consort of Jupiter) veiled, standing left, holding patera and scepter.

Note:  RIC notes that this coin is probably issued from Antioch but since there is uncertainty, leaves it under Rome.

Mint and Year:  Local issue - undated (after AD 249)
Weight:      3.44 grams
Die axis:    345 degrees
Rarity:       unlisted
 

Reverse: "IVNO REGINA"
    Juno (the consort of Jupiter) standing half-left, holding patera and scepter.

Note:  This coin is probably an ancient counterfeit.  The obverse die is the same as the "AEQVITAS AVGG" coin and both reverses are common for Herennia Etruscilla.  As this obverse die has been used for reverses issued under Trajan Decius, it was probably struck during or after his reign.

Mint and Year:  Local issue - undated (after AD 249)
Weight:      3.56 grams
Die axis:    165 degrees
Rarity:       unlisted
 

Reverse: "PANNONIAE"
    The two Pannoniae, veiled, standing right and left, facing each other, clasping hands.

Note:  This coin is probably another ancient counterfeit. It has a copper core with silver plating.  The reverse is common for Trajan Decius but unknown for this Empress.  As this obverse die has been used for reverses issued under Trajan Decius, it was probably struck during or after his reign.
