Aversbeschreibung Draped bust of Antonia Minor facing right, her hair arranged in tight curls across the forehead and drawn back into a long queue at the nape of the neck, a characteristic coiffure of the Julio-Claudian period. The effigy is rendered in high relief with fine detail to the facial features and drapery folds at the shoulder. The circular Latin legend ANTONIA AVGVSTA runs along the outer border, commencing at the lower left and terminating at the lower right. The portrait is dignified and idealized in keeping with imperial dynastic imagery, honoring Antonia Minor as the mother of the emperor Claudius. The field is otherwise unadorned.

Zusätzliche Informationen

Claudius struck this issue in honor of his mother Antonia Minor, who had died in 37 AD — before his accession — and therefore never saw her son become emperor. The posthumous tribute carried political weight: by publicly honoring Antonia, Claudius distanced himself from Caligula, who had treated her contemptuously in his final years and whom Claudius was quietly but systematically delegitimizing.

RIC 92 is among the more frequently encountered Claudian bronze issues, though cast forgeries produced in antiquity complicate the type. Genuine struck examples show a characteristic die axis and fabric distinct from the contemporary imitations circulating in the western provinces.
