                                Description

     This piece was minted during the reign of Antoninus Pius, who
     ruled from 138-161 AD. The reign of Antoninus is a virtual blank
     in the history books, owing to the stability and prosperity that
     Rome enjoyed during these years. He was the personification of
     Rome's golden age, which reached its zenith under his rule. The
     obverse of this piece depicts the laureate head of Antoninus
     facing right, with legends ANTONINVS.AVG.PIVS.P.P.TR.P.COS.III.
     The reverse features Aequitas standing front, head left, holding
     scales and sceptre. The legends read AEQVITAS.AVG. Coin shows
     some hairlines, and is a bit off center on the reverse, but
     otherwise grades VF, with bold devices and all legends visible,
     despite a little peripheral striking weakness. A nice example of
     the type, catalouged as RSC-14. Buyer pays postage/insurance,
     coin shipped on clearance of funds. PA residents please add
     appropriate sales tax. MC/Visa accepted for orders of $20 or
     more. For more ancients, please visit our WWW site at
