The Reign of Antoninus Pius - The Pax Romana Podcast 047

from The Pax Romana Podcast · host Professor Colin Elliott

Antoninus Pius (138-161 AD) ruled peacefully, leaving a lesser-known legacy. What can we know about this often neglected emperor? His coins illuminate some of the story. Gold coins showcase his loyalty: to the Senate, to Hadrian, and to his wife Faustina. Silver coins highlight his concern for the people's well-being, especially the grain supply.
