Roman AE As Maximus (235-238 AD) F NGC
Struck during the brief and turbulent period of 235 to 238 AD, this ancient Roman copper coin, known as an AE As, offers a tangible connection to the final years of the Severan dynasty's aftermath. Weighing approximately 11.4 grams, the coin was minted in Italy and served as a standard denomination of daily commerce in the Roman Empire. The obverse of the coin features a right-facing portrait of Maximus, depicted with a bare head and draped shoulders. On the reverse, the young Caesar is shown in full military attire, standing and facing left. This imagery highlights the martial themes that dominated the short-lived joint rule of Maximus and his father, Maximinus Thrax, before their dramatic downfall.
