[QUOTE="maridvnvm, post: 2436820, member: 31620"]Some absolutely fabulous coins here folks. I haven't been around here for a couple of weeks and am just catching up and it seems that I have missed people posting some gems. I am just catching up on some of my own purchases. Nothing in the same league as the more desirable Frugi types above but I have just received one of the common varieties. I bought it because I hadn't seen one with the pellets both sides of the bust before but given the number of varieties (over 1,000?) then this is hardly surprising. [B] C. Piso L. F. Frugi Denarius[/B] Obv:– Laureate head of Apollo right, Fractional mark (two vertical pellets) behind bust and (four pellets?) in front Rev:– Horseman galloping right, holding palm; L PISO FRVGI below, N pellet above Minted in Rome 90-89 B.C. Reference:– Crawford 340/1, RSC I Calpurnia 11 [IMG]http://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/albums/userpics/10618/Calpurnia_1b_img.jpg[/IMG] Martin[/QUOTE]
