[QUOTE="Moekeever, post: 4953845, member: 76158"]While browsing the ancients at my favorite dealers table today, I came across this beauty of a coin. ‘Silver Denarius Roman Imperial M. Acilius M. F. 130 BC OBV Roma REV Hercules in slow quadriga holding club and trophy. as I stared at the reverse, I thought it had the horses posed for a victory bow. Actually here’s the definition, I didn’t know but I do now. [SIZE=5][B]Definition of quadriga[/B][/SIZE] : a chariot drawn by four horses abreast The reverse pose drew me to buy this coin and I’m finding myself drawn into the Roman coin world as well as Greek.
