	Diadumenian - Biocrawler
		Marcus Opellius Antoninus Diadumenianus or Diadumenian, Roman Caesar (junior emperor), died 218 A.D. was the son of Emperor Macrinus who served his father briefly as Caesar (junior emperor) from May, 217 to 218 A.D. and as Augustus in 218.

		According to the Scriptores Historiae Augustae, Diadumenian emulated Macrinus in tyranny.

	Macrinus and Diadumenian
		Given his supposed honour there may have been a degree of guilt experienced by Macrinus as it is said that he sent a message of condolence to Julia Domna, Severus' widow an mother of the murdered Caracalla, on the other hand it could be just a cynical ploy to further distance himself from the assassination.
		Diadumenian also evolves in his appearence and this is quite noticeable in the civic coins struch for him.
		Diadumenian who had been dispatched to the Parthians for safety was taken at Zeugma.

		Diadumenian had little time to enjoy his position or to learn anything from its opportunities because the legions of Syria revolted and declared Elagabalus ruler of the Roman Empire.
		When Macrinus was defeated on June 8, 218, at Antioch, Diadumenian followed his father's death.
		According to the Scriptores Historiae Augustae, Diadumenian emulated Macrinus in tyranny.

	Diadumenian - bstorage.com
		The section of the HA covering this period between is full of contradictions and fabrications; and its author had a clear motive for a negative report on Macrinus.
		In this inscription, Diadumenian appears only as Caesar, not Augustus, showing that the title of Augustus was not bestowed on him (by senate, soldiers, or Macrinus) at the same time as Caesar, proving (a rare thing for Roman history studes) Eutropius wrong and Victor right on at least this count.
		This inscription must date to late May of the year 218, when, after Julia Maesa had succeeded in spreading the rumor that Elagababus was in fact Carracalla's son, and thus could claim to be emperor, when Macrinus and Diadumenian were executed, and the obliteration of their names was likely ordered by the Severan women.

		Diadumenian attempted to flee to the Parthians but he was captured and executed before he could reach them.
		All of the Imperial coinage of Macrinus and Diadumenian was struck in Rome, and since neither of them ever returned to Rome during their reign the portraits used must have been made by artists in the East and sent back to be used as models by the die cutters.
		This bust of Diadumenian is particularly delicate and attractive.

	Freeman & Sear -
		At the same time, he was given the additional name Antoninus, Caracalla’s formal name, in an attempt to mollify the soldiers and conceal Macrinus’s role in his predecessor’s murder.
		By all accounts, Diadumenian was a handsome lad of good character who might have made an excellent ruler had he ever exercised true power.
		Macrinus responded by raising Diadumenian to the rank of Augustus and promising the Praetorian Guard an accession bonus of 20,000 sesterces per man. But the rebel forces were victorious outside the walls of Antioch on June 8, and the rest of Macrinus' army abruptly switched sides save for a few holdouts.

	Diadumenian
		While most reference works examining the output of Roman provincial coinage usually consider the mint as the axel around which other factors turn, that was not an approach which appealed to me, as my interest lay in examining the iconography of Diadumenian across the Roman influenced world.
		Published works are, of course, invaluable and where appropriate have been referenced, but these references are disparate and it is expensive to obtain a complete listing for Diadumenian from current sources as there are often only a few relevant coins in each publication.
		There are sometimes subtle differences in the design of the reverse that some may class as varients, others may class as a different type.

		Unlike his predecessor, Macrinus immediately made provisions for his successor by appointing his young son Diadumenian to the rank of Caesar.
		While the Rome mint issued coins in the name of Diadumenian, the most commonly seen of his coins were issued by the Greek Imperial mints of the East where the Imperial pair spent their entire reign.
		While the letters on this coin seem small enough, there are other types which add the missing name and require the legend be continued in as many as three rows under the portraits.

		Ancient coins, even though they were struck by hand - for that matter, perhaps because they were - experienced minting errors as do modern coins.
		Coins were often struck slightly to significantly shifted from the center of the planchet, though, as seen on this Diadumenian provincial, only one face is off-center.
		The Æ3 of Constantine (left) was struck fairly well centered on the planchet, in contrast with the Constantinopolis commemorative (right) which is almost completely off the planchet.

	Trajan Decius
		Counting back from Trajan Decius we find that this type was used by Diadumenian and Geta.
		Most significant was the obverse trace of a G near Decius' mouth and the forehead to nose profile peeking out from under Decius' radiate crown.
		The hair appears to be a bit longer than usual for Diadumenian and the correctly placed G clinches the ID in favor of Geta.

		Faced with open rebellion, Macrinus raised his nine year old son Diadumenian to co-emperor status, using the occasion to hand out monetary gifts to the military in hopes of winning them back.
		He tried to alter his appearance by shaving his beard and cutting his hair, and headed toward Rome in hopes of rallying support there.
