CLODIUS ALBINUS, as Caesar. 193-195 AD. AR Denarius (18mm, 3.56 gm). Bare head right / Roma seated left, holding palladium and spear. RIC IV 11b, RSC 61a. Toned VF.
RIC and RSC both claim Roma holds a sceptre, but the plates in both clearly show a reversed spear (i e pointing downward), as does this coin.
