Here is one of my favorites dating to 132 BC, this was issued by P. Maenius M.f. Antias and is listed by Sear as SR-126. I hope you'll post yours!
Wonderful denarius @Aethelred !!! One of my favorites from a recent purchase and of similar age: RENIA (138 BC) Caius Renius Date: 138 B.C. Workshop name: Rome Metal: silver Diameter: 16mm Weight: 3.70g. Crawford 231/1 Obverse titration: Anépigraphe. Description obverse: Head helmeted from Rome to the right; Behind X. Titulature reverse: C. RENI // ROMA. Description reverse: Juno in a goat's beard galloping to the right, holding a scepter and the reins of the left hand and a whip of the right hand.
Great quadrigas! The obverse portrait of the coin in the OP has a pleasantly benevolent expression, if a bit dreamy.
@Mikey Zee - the background in your photos really seem to give depth to the composition and make the coin stand out. Great pics!
Nice Maenius Antius @Aethelred . I have nary a one... How about a year later: RR Postumius Albinus 131 BCE Roma Mars Quadriga Sear 128 Craw 252/1
Nice coin @Aethelred, but it would be nicer if it were mine. But how about this one from near the same period of time I. MINUCIUS C.F. AUGURINUS AR DENARIUS OBVERSE: Head of Roma right, star behind REVERSE: TI MINVCI C F on left, RO-MA above, AVGVRINI on right; 2 togate figures, one holding a simpulum, the other a lituus, standing by statue on column, grain ears on either side of the column Rome, 134 BC 3.86g, 17mm Cr243/1, Syd 494, Minucia 9
Wow @Bing I was literally just looking at one of that type. It is a sign, a sign that I should buy it.
Here is another sign for you! RR Minucius-Augurinus AR denarius 18mm 3-9g Rome mint 134 BC XVI Spiral column corn-ears togate figure holding loaves modius lituus Craw 243/1 Sear 120

I don't know, I'd have to Google it. I picked this one up from the January CNG this year. I had just copied their listing. Their scan is better than my photo. But for kicks I'm sure everyone would agree **edited @Aethelred Google works they're still in Hazlet ***
@Smojo I can't seem to find a website or anything, they do not seem to still be active. Re: your pics vs. CNG. I can be mule headed and irrational at times (my wife would say most of the time) but I will stubbornly use my own photos on my website even if the seller's pics are clearly better.
Colosseum Coin Exchange, Inc. Specialities: Hours: Phone: (732) 264-1161; Fax: (732) 264-6467 Didn't see a web site. Aww, I'm a big enough to know where my skills are. Definately not still photograghy but I still try, sometime I even amaze myself but it's far few inbetween.
Aethelred, congrats on your new chariot-addition (total winna) Ummm, I'm fairly sure that I only have this lone RR chariot-example ... C. Licinius Lf Macer, AR Denarius 84 BC Vejovis & Minerva in Quadriga
