Felicitas AR Denarius of MACRINUS

     This coin was minted during the brief reign of Macrinus, who
     ruled from 217-218 AD. 
The obverse of this type depicts the laureate
     and cuirassed bust of Macrinus facing right, with legends
     IMP.C.M.OPEL.SEV.MACRINVS.AVG. The reverse features Felicitas
     standing front, head left, holding long caduceus and cornucopiae,
     with legends PONTIF.MAX.TR.P.COS.P.P. Coin is a little off
     center, but otherwise grades Good VF+, with bold devices and
     legends all around, and a nice high relief Rome mint portrait of
     Macrinus. A choice example of the very scarce coinage of this
     short-lived emperor, RSC-65.
