Peacock? Most of these have a folded tail like the anonymous quadrans below with Juno obverse. Last I heard these were credited to the Domitian...
That is a nice looking specimen. Of course those of us who want more than one will point out that these come with reverse facing either direction...
If you like eagles, consider looking at Greeks or Provincials. Most common are the tetradrachms of Alexandria where just about any reverse sells...
In 'the day' you had to rely a lot on the taste of the dealer. I knew one dealer who I suspect was buying coins cheaply because others avoided...
[IMG] Yes, some of us do seek multiples as above. Below are my six reverses using the same obverse die. I want more. [IMG]
Consider getting over the idea of only wanting one coin per ruler. While I don't see anything about either coin that would make it suitable to be...

In the old days no one thought much about information privacy and you never saw a privacy statement or suggestion that asking for a catalog would...
Zumbly's lot works out to $200 a coin give or take after fluff is added. The picture shows no coin not worth $200. The fact that there was a...
