Only a handful of dies know, only a handful of examples known and thought to be unique by Crawford. This is probably the lowest grade identifiable example of the type but the price was right and I might not see another one any time soon so I took it.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]466869[/ATTACH] </p><p>Cr 142/5 &quot;Bull and MD&quot; sextans. Sextantes from this time period are all fairly scarce. The scarcity of this type, even in this condition, is attested to by the fact that it was at one time or other in the Goodman, RBW and McCabe collections, all some of the best Republican bronze collections ever held in private hands. An interesting note: the flan is evidence of the two-piece molds used to cast flans of this period. The top and bottom were not perfectly aligned leading to the strangeness at the edges.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
