[QUOTE="Mat, post: 2639842, member: 21445"]I know it's only February and we still have 10 months left for the year, but recently I acquired a VERY rare tetradrachm of Lucilla. I will share that I got for $101 shipped, which is a steal considering most of her tets. go for hundreds, sometimes more. Whats even more special it's an R5 in Emmett I couldn't find any other examples. Dattari 3816, the spec. cited by Emmett, may well be from the same die as mine, judging from the pencil rubbing in Dattari-Savio, pl. 205. This coin is probably gonna be my COTY for 2017 [img]https://s29.postimg.org/mp604eth3/luciltet.jpg[/img] Lucilla (164 - 182 A.D.) Billion Tetradrachm EGYPT, Alexandria O: ΛOVKIΛΛA C–ЄB ANT CЄ ΘV, draped bust right. R: Elpis stdg. l. holding flowers & lifting skirt. LS=6th yr. Alexandria Mint 24mm 11.33g Dattari 3816, Emmett 2473, R5[/QUOTE]
