Once again, I walked into a coin shop and something caught my eye at the right price. Since I'm still fairly new to ancients, I'm making only cautious, low cost purchases. The coin below was in a turnstile case along with a few rows of other ancients ranging from poor condition to radiantly gorgeous. This one fell somewhere in between those extremes. I've purchased from the shop many times over the years. Once again, I'm new to this, but I believe the attribution is: Roman Republic AR denarius P. Clodius Turrinus Rome mint, 42 BC Laureate head of Apollo right; lyre to left / Diana Lucifera standing facing, head right, bow and quiver on her shoulder, holding lighted torch in each hand; M • F at left, P • CLODIVS at right 3.5 g, 19 mm Crawford 494/23; Syd 1117 A fair amount of this information was already on the flip insert.
Yep, look like it to me. Don't forget CRI 184, David Sear's Coinage of The Roman Imperators. Your coin is from the Imperatorial period, which in the words of my people is "cool".
