Hi

Can someone help me ID this Antonius please? I see its Mars victory but I'm trying to pinpoint it. Maybe a catalogue number or so... to get proper info about it. Thanks

The obverse legend reads:

IMPerator CAESar Marcus AVRelius ANTONINVS AVGustus

so it would be "Caracalla", son of Septimius Severus.

EDIT: Correction ─ it would be "Elagabalus" who does have the Mars Victor reverse type, unlike Caracalla.

I would say its this one: http://www.wildwinds.com/coins/ric/elagabalus/RIC_0121.jpg
Denarius - Elagabalus - RIC 121
or this one: http://www.wildwinds.com/coins/ric/elagabalus/RIC_0121b.jpg
But is it silver? Or possibly a limes denarius?
