[QUOTE="Sallent, post: 2781985, member: 76194"]Well, everything in life can't be spade coins, whu zhu coins, cash coins, or coins of that most awesome of Chinese Emperors, Wang Mang!!! So here is a small detour. This is a rather common RR denarius, but it's been in my list of coins to get for 2 years. I could never find the right one at the right price (below $100). I finally found one I could live with for a $100 note, with enough spare change back to get lunch. In other words, below my target price. What do you think of these anonimous beauties? I've personally always loved the way the horses appear in the quadriga. A little off center, but nothing I can't live with, and nice old toning. [ATTACH=full]643786[/ATTACH] ROMAN REPUBLIC. Anonymous. AR Denarius Rome Mint, 86 BCE. Obv.: Laureate head of Apollo right; thunderbolt below. Rev.: Jupiter driving galloping quadriga right, hurling thunderbolt and holding reins. Reference: Crawford 350A/2[/QUOTE]
