Well. tough to post mine after @octavius displayed his amazing coin .. I doubt there is one better in existence (but what do I know?). Thank you for sharing! But what the heck... Agrippa is one of the most accomplished men to ever grace a coin. A favorite for me - so this coin is light on Neptune but not so bad on the main man!
Nice one! I have the sestertius too, with Neptune to the right. Dark green patina, with reddisch colouring, a difficult one to take a proper picture of with the limited equipment I have. This Neptune is holding an acrostolium. It's also possible it's holding a dolphin. difficult to see. I still have to update the reference, because I think its 652 (slight drapery) and not 651. I believe I see some drapery with your buste as well. And what is your Neptune holding? I can't quite see.
My coin has slight drapery to the bust and Neptune is holding an acrostolium. It looks like yours is holding a dolphin. Nice coin.
