Maximinus I, 235-238. Denarius (Silver, 19 mm, 2.32 g, 5 h), Rome, 235-236. IMP MAXIMINVS PIVS AVG Laureate, draped and cuirassed bust of Maximinus I to right. Rev. FIDES MILITVM Fides standing facing, her head turned to left, holding a military standard in each hand. Cohen 7. RIC 7A. Very nice and clear example. Minor porosity , otherwise, very fine.
This early portrait type is clearly based on that of Severus Alexander and shows that the mint personnel did not know exactly what Maximinus looked like!.
