TRAJAN DECIUS, (250-251 A.D.), consecration issue for Divus Commodus, silver antoninianus, Rome mint, (4.20 g), obv. radiate head to right of Commodus, around DIVO COMMODO, rev. lighted altar, CONSECRATIO around, (S.9481, RSC 1010, RIC 94 [Trajan Decius]). Toned, mild surface pitting, very fine or better and rare.
Ex Dr V.J.A.Flynn Collection.
These restitution issues of Trajan Decius are of selected deified emperors and the contemporary judgement on past emperors made at this time excluded some like Claudius but included others such as Titus and suprisingly even Commodus. The typology of the series is uniform both for obverse style, the reverse legend and the subject theme. One of the most interesting commemorative series.
