The coin was introduced by Caracalla in early 215 AD and was a full silver coin similar to the denarius except that it was slightly larger and featured the emperor wearing a radiate crown, indicating that it was valued twice as much.
The most frequently imitated coins are those of the Gallic emperor Tetricus I. The word antoninianus is a modern term based on the name of Caracalla (Marcus Aurelius Antoninianus), who was the first to issue such a coin; the ancient name of the coin is not known.
The coin is also referred to as a radiate, from the radiate crown worn by the emperor.

This guaranteed that his image and name was circulated widely and fast, though these issues lacked the five percent silver of Aurelian's reformed radiates.
Instead, his mint-workers used coinage then in circulation, including radiates of Gallienus and barbarous radiates of the Gallic Empire.

 Hoards
However, the Rogiet hoard (Table 2, C306) and the Langtoft 'A' hoard (Table 2, C255), are fairly atypical, in that they contain not only 'reformed' coins of the Aurelianic and Diocletianic period, but also de-based radiates of the Gallic emperors and the British usurpers, Carausius and Allectus.
As a result of these finds, opinion is shifting to the view that, rather than being de-monetised or simply dumped, the old radiates circulated alongside the legitimate coinage, perhaps as a different denomination.
The situation is further confused by the appearance of 'Barbarous Radiates', which start around the time of the Gallic Emperors.

Barbarous Radiates were coins made by the so-called Barbarians (the word beard is derived from the word barbarian because these people did not shave!) during the Roman occupation period of Europe 2000 years ago.
The best clues to identifying these coins and differentiate them from normal Roman coins, are an off-center strike (although some radiates are excellent quality), and nonsensical lettering.
And then there were Romano-British Radiates made by the abandoned people after the Roman soldiers withdrew from Britain, when there was no official coinage anymore but they copied what they best remembered -- King Arthur era!!
