The Roman Empire
Aemilian, 253

Aemilian has firstly a rather generic portrait type that resembles Philip the Arab. These were likely the first issues of Aemilian, when the mint did not quite know what he looked like. His second numismatic portrait type seems more individual, below two examples. AMP.

Antoninianus 253, AR 3.79 g. IMP AEMILIANVS PIVS FEL AVG Radiate, draped and cuirassed bust r. Rev. P M TR P I P P Aemilian, in military dress, standing l., sacrificing out of patera over tripod and holding spear in l. hand. C 32. RIC 7. Reverse slightly off centre, otherwise good extremely fine
