Caracalla. AD 198-217. Æ As (26mm, 10.57 g, 7h). British Victory type. Rome mint. Struck AD 210-211. Laureate head right / Victory standing right, with foot on uncertain object, inscribing shield set upon palm tree to right. RIC IV 522a corr. (obv. legend). VF, red-green patina, some light smoothing.Ex Classical Numismatic Group Electronic Auction 132 (1 February 2006), lot 216.Septimius Severus waged his last military campaign against the Caledonians on the northern border of Britain, where he himself died at his campaign headquarters at York in February AD 211. Among those who accompanied him on the campaign were his wife Julia Domna, as well as his sons Caracalla and Geta. Septimius and Caracalla commanded this campaign, with Caracalla becoming sole commander after his father had fallen ill. The two often did not agree on matters of strategy and we are told that at one point that Caracalla became so enraged that he appeared ready to stab his father in the back before the entire army. Upon Severus' death at York in February AD 211, Caracalla made peace with the Caledonians on less-than-favorable terms, which required the Romans retreat to the agreed border of Hadrian's Wall

THRACE, Apollonia Pontika. Late 5th-4th centuries BC. AR Drachm (12mm, 2.88 g, 8h). Facing gorgoneion / Upright anchor; A to left, crayfish to right. Topalov, Apollonia 45; SNG BM Black Sea 160–1. Good VF.Around 610 BC, Ionian Greeks from Miletos established an important outpost on the western Black Sea coast. Originally called Antheia, and located on a natural peninsula and three nearby islands, the city quickly became a prosperous trading post by exporting copper, honey, grain, and timber, while importing wine, salt, textiles, and pottery for resale to the inland Thracians. The city's key trading partners at the time included fellow-commercial centers Miletos, Athens, Lesbos, Chios, and Rhodes.Prosperity soon enabled Antheia to expand and develop as an important cultural metropolis. An important temple to Apollo was constructed within the city in the late 5th century BC. For 500 talents, it commissioned the Greek sculptor Kalamis (of Boeotia) to cast a 13 ton, 10 meter high, bronze statue of Apollo for the new temple (Strabo VII.6.1). So popular was this temple of Apollo, that the city was now renamed Apollonia in its honor. In 72 BC, during his war against the Thracian Bessi, the proconsul of Macedon, Marcus Terentius Varro Lucullus (cos. 73 BC), sacked the city and had the statue transported to Rome, where it was displayed on the Capitol (Pliny, NH XXXIV.18; Strabo VII.6.1).The 5th and 4th century BC coinage of Apollonia Pontika reflects that city's origins: commercial wealth and maritime power. The gorgon was a popular apotropaic device, seen as warding off evil; thus a number of ancient Greek cities adopted it as a coin design. The anchor and the crayfish attest to the city's reliance on maritime commerce for its economy, and the anchor depicted on these coins is actually one of the first anchors of modern design rendered in Greek art.
