Yet another Labienus denarius has appeared. It is from Numismatik Naumann 111 (5 Dec 2021), lot 711. It is quite worn, so I haven’t identified the Hersh die pair. For the time being I am considering this as genuine, but have not yet located any earlier sales or published accounts. The newly added coin is Index S61 on the Labienus page of the Parthia.com website. The genuine 5 gold and 61 silver coins of Labienus are illustrated. Following is a list of the denarii mentioned by Hersh for which I’ve not found photos. If you have the catalogue or know the location of photos for any of the following, please contact me: · Hersh 5a. “Strauss Collection.” 3.73g · Hersh 14a. “Spink (in commerce)” 3.68g · Hersh 17b. “Munich.” A private or museum collection? 3.57g · Hersh 23a. “Rome, Museo Nazionale (acquired 1903/04).” 3.82g And, of course, I’ll appreciate information about any Q. Labienus coins missing from my website. Cheers, Chris Hopkins www.parthia.com www.sylloge.org
