PISIDIA. Palaeopolis. Elagabalus, 218-222. Triassarion (Orichalcum, 25 mm, 9.35 g, 12 h). ΑYΤ Κ Μ ΑΥ ΑΝΤΩΝЄΙΝΟϹ Laureate and draped bust of Elagabalus (or Caracalla?) to right. Rev. ΠΑΛΑΙΟΠΟΛЄΙΤΩΝ Zeus seated left, holding thunderbolt in his right hand and long scepter in his left; to right, eagle with spread wings standing facing, head to left. RPC VI online 5910.5 (this coin). Von Aulock, Pisidien I, 1109-1111. Very rare, only five examples known to RPC. Some light pitting and with trace deposits, otherwise, very fine.


The style of the obverse bust and the obverse legend both go equally well with Caracalla, making the attribution of this piece to Elagabalus tentative.
