[QUOTE="Roman Collector, post: 8080247, member: 75937"]Nice one, [USER=82616]@David Atherton[/USER]! I like quadrantes, though I don't have a whole lot of them. I have only one of Minerva. Not a spectacular example but, as they say, it looks better in hand.

Obv: Helmeted and draped bust of Minerva right. Rev: S-C, Owl standing left, head facing. Ref: RIC 8. My favorite quadrans is this Venus and dove one from the same series.
