ELAGABALUS (218-222). Denarius. Antioch.
Obv: ANTONINVS PIVS FEL AVG.
Laureate, draped and cuirassed bust right.
Rev: SANCT DEO SOLI ELAGABAL.
Quadriga right bearing stone of Emesa upon which is an eagle; four parasols around.
RIC 195.
Varus Avitus Bassianus, son of Julia Soemia, besides being emperor was a priest of the sun god El-Gabal of Emesa, current Homs in Syria. In 218, thanks to the clever machinations of his grandmother Julia Maesa and the large sums of money she paid to the soldiers, Bassianus was appointed emperor under the name Marcus Aurelius Antoninus, the same as Caracalla. This was not a random choice, for the late prince was very dear to the hearts of his soldiers and, more generally, the Antonine name was well liked by the Romans. Of course, Bassianus would have had no right to bear it if the wily Mesa had not spread the false rumor that he was Caracalla's son. According to the senatorial literature, ill-disposed toward authoritarian rulers, Bassianus was the worst emperor Rome had ever had. His biography, written by Aelius Lampridius, which describes him as the most vicious and perverse emperor ever, is certainly exaggerated. Bassianus, however, was unable to integrate himself into Rome and imposed his lifestyle and absolutist conception of power. As high priest of the god El-Gabal, he tried to impose his cult on Rome, claiming to put him in the place of Jupiter and going so far as to celebrate the divine wedding between the god and Minerva. El-Gabal was represented as a black cone, most likely a meteorite. Rome was forced to accommodate that cult and build for El-Gabal a sumptuous temple on the Palatine, the Elagabalium. It was because of this inconvenient cult that Bassianus was called "Elagabalus" by all. According to the historian Herodian, during the festival in honor of El-Gabal, the emperor as a priest had the statue of the god placed on a chariot of gold and precious stones and, with the help of white horses, led it forward on foot and holding the reins, as if the god himself were driving the chariot. The chariot was preceded by horsemen and soldiers during the procession, while the people threw garlands and flowers.

AI Recommendation
Para estimar un precio máximo de compra para la moneda en cuestión, podemos considerar varios factores:
1. Precio de salida: 600 euros. Este es el precio inicial que se establece para la subasta.
2. Historial de subastas: La moneda se ha subastado 25 veces en el pasado, de las cuales se ha vendido 14 veces. Esto indica que hay un interés moderado en la moneda.
3. Precio medio de salida y remate: El precio medio de salida es de 69.17 euros y el precio medio de remate es de 44.08 euros. Esto sugiere que, en general, las monedas de esta referencia no alcanzan precios muy altos en subastas anteriores.
4. Conservación: La conservación de esta moneda es de 90 (extremely fine), lo que indica que está en muy buen estado. Esto puede aumentar su valor en comparación con monedas de menor conservación.
Dado que el precio de salida es significativamente más alto que el precio medio de remate en el pasado, y considerando la buena conservación de la moneda, podríamos estimar un precio máximo de compra que esté por encima del precio medio de remate, pero que no alcance el precio de salida.
Una estimación razonable podría ser entre 100 y 150 euros, teniendo en cuenta la conservación y el interés en la moneda. Sin embargo, dado que el precio de salida es de 600 euros, es probable que el precio de remate real esté más cerca de ese rango, pero aún así, es poco probable que alcance el precio de salida.
Por lo tanto, un precio estimado máximo de compra podría ser alrededor de 150 euros.
