Anazarbos (BC 15-AD 19) AE 31 - Germanicus836 viewsGermanicus, Caesar, 15 BC-19 AD. AE31 - Diassarion (17.72g, 12h). Dated CY 67 (48/9 AD). Bare head right / Laureate head of Zeus Olybris right before mountain with acropolis; ETOYΣ ZΞ (date) in exergue. Near EF, dark green patina, minor adjustment marks on reverse. A great portrait and highly interesting reverse type. Group CEM.

RPC gives three possible identifications for the figure on the obverse: Claudius, Britannicus, and Germanicus. Britannicus is the most easily dismissable attribution; as RPC notes (p. 595) the nomenclature would be unlikely for such a date. Levante and Ziegler describe the figure as Claudius (the latter with a question mark), but the varying portrait style and the obverse legend “TIBERIOC KΛAΔIOC KAICAP” on a parellel issue of the same year casts serious doubt. Germanicus then seems the most likely.
