<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Carausius, post: 3175489, member: 76440&quot;]Sicilian coins don&#039;t have to be Greek!&nbsp; A few from my collection, all Roman and all from Sicilian mints:</p><p><br /></p><p>1. AR Didrachm-Quadrigatus. 225-214 BCE. Crawford 42.&nbsp; Rare!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]817021[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>2.&nbsp; This may technically count as TWO Sicilian coins - An anonymous version of a Corn-Ear AE Quadrans from a Sicilian mint, overstruck on an imitative Ptolemaic bronze by Hieron II (Zeus&#039; hair visible beneath bull).&nbsp; Crawford 42.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]817023[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>3. A rare early Republican, ROMANO - ROMANO struck bronze from a Sicilian mint, circa 240BCE. Cr. 23/1.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]817028[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>4.&nbsp; Finally, a Roman Imperatorial denarius of Sextus Pompey, likely struck on Sicily while he controlled the island in the 30s BCE..</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]817032[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
