I am also building the 12 Caesar's set out of Bronze, i picked this up from our very own LostDutchman, he posted this with a bunch of other Ancients that walked through the door. We made the deal and i got a awesome coin.This is 10th. of 12 for my set. Gaius Caligula..39-40..AD.. AE, AS Obv. bare head left. Rev.Vesta above, S-C across field, Vesta seated left, holding patrea and Scepter. 30mm x 11.30g. (Ric 38 is my guess) Thick dark patina. Ex. LostDutchman collection..2014 Please post your Caligula coins..
Nice example. Caligula (37 - 41 A.D.) AE30 AS SEGOBRIGA, SPAIN O: C CAESAR AVG GERMANICVS IMP, laureate head left. R: SEGO BRIGA in wreath. Segobriga Mint 30.5mm 10.1g Burgos 1724
That's a good looking young chap you have on that coin, Eng. He looks like he'd make a decent, upstanding emperor Sadly, I have no Caligula coins to post.
Nice one Eng! I have a similar example. Caligula: AD 37-41 AE As; 30mm/10.9g Obv: C CAESAR AVG GERMANICVS PON M TR POT, bare head left Rev: VESTA above, S C across field, Vesta seated left, holding patera and sceptre. (RIC I 38, Cohen 27)
hey "hello", my awesome West Coast coin-friend ... => wow, congrats on an absolute classic!! (fantastic coin ... Caligula, sure maybe not the rarest Roman Ruler, but certainly one of the most well-known and/or "controversial") ... anyway, halibut => congrats on a big, heavy, super-awesome, fat AS!! Oh ... and I happen to have one mighty big AS as well ... enjoy!!
