                                Description

     Coin was minted in 167 AD, during the reign of Lucius Verus, who
     served as co-emperor with Marcus Aurelius from 161-169 AD. He
     campaigned in the East with considerable success, at least in
     name, although some authorities consider him to have had very
     little to do with the Roman successes. He was a weak man,
     addicted to pleasure, and his death came as a relief to Aurelius.
     The obverse of this type depicts the laureate head of Lucius
     Verus facing right, with legends L.VERVS.AVG.ARM.PARTH.MAX. The
     reverse features Aequitas standing left, holding scales and
     cornucopiae, with legends TR.P.VII.IMP.IIII.COS.III. Coin shows
     light granularity, but otherwise grades AVF, with clear devices
     and legends all around. A nice example of the type, catalouged as
     RSC-297. All coins guaranteed genuine without limitations. 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. Member ANA, PAN. For more ancients, please

     Thanks!
