The Roman Imperial Coinage: Volume V, Pa..., page: 377, No. 7, notes:
Notes:The antoninianus was given the value of a silver coin but was in fact a bronze coin with a silver wash. Here the silver wash has almost completely worn off. This coin has possibly been clipped or compressed at the top of the obverse/bottom of reverse.Because of this the coin has cracked.
