Galba As Ceres

Last week I bought this Galba As to replace a Galba Sestertius in my 12 caesar bronze set. It was too large imho between the other Asses and Dupondii.
Now the set is more uniform in size.




In time I also want an upgrade for the Otho from fine to very fine.

Please show us your Galba As/Dupondius

Galba bronze in any condition is nice to have. That’s a nice upgrade.

 

Wow, nice @Andres2 ! Great looking set, but wow on an AE Galba... looks very nice!

I have an AR Galba, and a VERY ruddy looking Sestertius:

Really a distinctive face.


RI Galba AE Sestertius 69 CE SPQR - O.B - CIV.SER in Wreath

 

Great set
And a lovely Galba

 

Great coin Andres2, with nice eye appeal. I have a similar Ceres by Galba.
Galba. AD 68-69. Æ As (29mm, 10.94 g, 6h). Rome mint. Struck circa June-August AD 68. Laureate head right / Ceres seated left on throne with high, arched back, holding grain ear and poppy and cradling caduceus. RIC I 291; ACG –.

 

Alegandron, that's the same type Sestertius which was in my 12 Caesar set:

 

Great addition @Andres2, and nice looking set. I dont have a bronze coin of Galba, and I lack quite some bronzes to be able to put together a set. One day however....

 

He has a very “tough” face on our issues!
