Lot # 151 - DIDIUS JULIANUS (193). Denarius. Rome. Obv: IMP CAES M DID IVLIAN AVG. Laureate head right.Rev: RECTOR ORBIS. Didius Julianus standing left, holding globe and volumen.RIC 3.Marcus Didius Severus Julianus was born in Mediolanum in AD 133 and grew up in the house of Marcus Aurelius, brought up by his mother, Domitia Lucilla, thanks to whom he was elected to the vigintivirate. Didius Julianus then distinguished himself in Germania against the Chauci and was awarded the consulship in 175. When Pertinace was assassinated, Didius Julianus proposed himself as his successor in a manner that, according to the historian Cassius Dione, was scandalous and infamous. Julian is said to have offered to the praetorians a large sum of money in exchange for the empire. Similarly, however, Sulpicianus, father-in-law of the late Pertinace, behaved in a sort of auction to buy the throne. Didius Julianus prevailed, winning power with 30,000 sestertii paid to each praetorian, but also promising to rehabilitate the memory of Commodus. His first action as emperor was in fact to bring down the head of the praetorian prefect Quintus Aemilius Leto, who had taken part in the conspiracy with Cassius Dion in 192 and was guilty of the murder of Commodu Didius Julian's power was short-lived, however, because of Septimius Severus, governor of Pannonia Superior, who accused him of murdering Pertinaces and was supported by the people. Faced with the advance of Septimius Severus, Didius Severus was abandoned by the legionaries of the Danube and also by the Praetorians, without whom it was impossible to maintain power in Rome. The Senate thus, in an extraordinary meeting, deposed Julian and condemned him to death. Condition: Good very fine.Weight: 3.00 g. Diameter: 18 mm.Estimate: € 2000

Hilaritas standing left, holding palm frond and cornucopia.RIC 10 (Julianus).RareManlia Scantilla became the wife of Marcus Didius Julianus in 153, and from this marriage a daughter, Didia Clara, was born, with whom she was elected to the rank of augusta by the Roman Senate on the occasion of her husband's elevation to emperor. According to the historian Herodianus, the two women themselves suggested Didius to buy his imperial office at auction. When Commodus was assassinated, he was succeeded by the praetorian prefect Pertinax, from whom the Praetorian Guard expected favors and money but were disappointed; this led them to eliminate Pertinax and seek out a generous candidate by auctioning off their support. The two contenders were Sulpicianus and Didius Julianus, who was reportedly persuaded by his wife to pay 30,000 sestertii to “buy” the title of emperor. Because of the promises he had made to the Praetorian Guard, the new emperor was forced to intervene in monetary matters, reducing the silver content of the coins so that he could mint them in greater quantities. The mint in Rome then began to mint coins bearing the portraits of his wife and daughter, Didia Clara. However, Julian held power for only a short time, as he was unable to win the loyalty of the army, which soon betrayed him in order to support Septimius Severus. When her husband was beheaded on 1 June 193, Manlia Scantilla was able to dispose of the body but not the heredity, losing the title of augusta. There are no records after that, and depictions of her and her daughter on coins or statues remain very rare. Condition: Near extremely fine; some luster in field.Weight: 3.17 g.
