<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ancientnoob, post: 2227405, member: 44140&quot;]Time and time again I hear calls for Siliqua. A type I did not own until now. Siliqua, a small late Roman silver coin. Yes. In most cases but not in this case. I scored (most of ) a fraction of one of a Siliqua.</p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=44210]@ValiantKnight[/USER] has a great write up on the type and [USER=73473]@Magnus Maximus[/USER] can tell you everything you need to know about Siliqua.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/aww-yeah-got-me-some-barbarian-silver.256510/" class="internalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.cointalk.com/threads/aww-yeah-got-me-some-barbarian-silver.256510/">https://www.cointalk.com/threads/aww-yeah-got-me-some-barbarian-silver.256510/</a></p><p><br /></p><p>I spotted this uber rare coin being sold on Vcoins along with a half dozen others. When I saw it the listing was fresh, now all but 2 are sold. Wew!... glad I didn&#039;t think before I bought it.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Looking around the internet appears that a hoard of these has come to the market. I can find several &quot;gem&quot; examples coming up for sale later this month and next month I am sure the &quot;Sharks&quot; smell blood in the water.</p><p><br /></p><p>I have a feeling once these are gone, they will be gone forever, limited edition, never to made again collector coins. Your going to want to buy one of these in order to avoid feelings of future regret.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sirmium,Serbia</p><p>Ostrogoths (Gepids)</p><p>Theodoric in the name of Anastasius (AD 491-518)</p><p>AR Fractional Siliqua</p><p>16 mm x 0.64 grams</p><p>Obverse: Diademed draped bust right. - DNANASTASIVSPAV</p><p>Reverse: Monogram of Theodoric ♰ ROMANI*VINVICTA</p><p>Ref: Wroth 74</p><p>Note: Full legend, sharp details, clipped (common for type), Uber Rare!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]437371[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
