TR P VIIII - IMP VI COS IIII P P, Commodus in military attire, holding spear and resting hand on a helmet placed atop a trophy; at the base of which, two small captives are bound. Cohen 913. BMCRM -. Gnecchi II, p. 69, n. 155. Well struck with full legends and excellent overall details. Typical 19th-century collection cleaning, with the patina removed. The surface shows a bronze tone with dark spots from aged wax. Good Very Fine. Extremely Rare type with the sixth salutatio imperatoria. The reverse presents Commodus clad in full military dress, gripping a spear and triumphantly presiding over a grand trophy of war. At its base, two defeated captives crouch in submission, emphasizing the emperor’s dominance. Far larger than the prisoners, Commodus looms above them — a deliberate exaggeration that reflects not just Roman victory iconography, but the emperor’s own fixation with strength and heroic stature. The scene transforms the medallion into a bold statement of imperial might and personal vanity.
