Rome AR Silver Denarius Elagabalus (218-222 AD) XF NGC
During a tumultuous chapter of the Roman Empire, a young emperor named Elagabalus ruled the ancient world. This silver denarius, minted between 218 and 222 AD, offers a direct connection to that distant era. Measuring approximately 18 millimeters in diameter and weighing about 0.12 ounces, this silver piece has survived the centuries in an exceptional state of preservation, earning a grade of Extra Fine. The obverse of the coin displays a right-facing portrait bust of the young emperor Elagabalus. Surrounding his profile is the legible Latin inscription IMP ANTONINVS AVG, which proclaims his imperial title and links him to the prestigious Antonine dynasty. The clarity of the engraving and the fine details of the portrait provide an intimate look at the imperial portraiture of the third century.
