<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Fugio1, post: 3546929, member: 89970&quot;]With two new coins from recent sales by Roma and NAC, I&#039;ve completed a couple of trio sets of the denarius / quinarius / sestertius.&nbsp; I&#039;ve shared some of this in previous posts so my apologies for the repetition.&nbsp;&nbsp; These are the anonymous splayed visor issue, Crawford 44, believed to be among the earliest denarii, and which is comprised of several varieties and sub-varieties described in <a href="http://stevebrinkman.ancients.info/anonymous/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://stevebrinkman.ancients.info/anonymous/" rel="nofollow">my website on anonymous denarii.</a></p><p><br /></p><p>The first set is a group 1 variation.&nbsp; <a href="http://stevebrinkman.ancients.info/anonymous/#44-5-IX-10" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://stevebrinkman.ancients.info/anonymous/#44-5-IX-10" rel="nofollow">Group 1</a> has two sub-variations, one with a 2-bar visor on Roma&#039;s helmet and the other with a broader head and a&nbsp; 3-bar visor.&nbsp; This is the second variation.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]942655[/ATTACH] </p><p>The second &quot;Trio&quot; is <a href="http://stevebrinkman.ancients.info/anonymous/#44-5-IX-16" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://stevebrinkman.ancients.info/anonymous/#44-5-IX-16" rel="nofollow">group 3</a> with unbound hair and wing feather sharply bent and pointing straight back or downward.&nbsp; The quinarius was my recent win from NAC 114 to fill out this set.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]942658[/ATTACH] </p><p>The last is a sub-variation of <a href="http://stevebrinkman.ancients.info/anonymous/#44-5-IX-13" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://stevebrinkman.ancients.info/anonymous/#44-5-IX-13" rel="nofollow">group 2</a>.&nbsp;&nbsp; This variety is sometimes found with a small &quot;dot&quot; below the truncation of Roma&#039;s neck as seen on the quinarius.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]942661[/ATTACH] If you have early denarii or fractions, I would like to see and hear about them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
