<p>[QUOTE=&quot;rrdenarius, post: 3207408, member: 75525&quot;]My first Caligula is a Roman Provincial bronze. Caligula, 37-41 AD; Phrygia Aezani - Zeus reverse.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]831836[/ATTACH] </p><p>Roman Provincial bronze - Caligula, 37-41 AD, Phrygia Aezani - Zeus reverse</p><p>Lollios Klassikos magistrate</p><p>Obverse: laureate bust right</p><p>Reverse: Zeus standing left with eagle and scepter</p><p>RPC 3080</p><p>18mm, 3.70 grams</p><p><br /></p><p>I bought the coin this weekend and decided to post now. I found several similar coins in acsearch and CNG databases. Most were worn like mine and had no obverse legend. I do not claim to collect the 12 Caesars, but manage to look at most of the 69AD coins in auctions. I would like a Galba, but want one nicer than my price range.</p><p><br /></p><p>I went to this auction by Ephesus Numismatics after reading their sale e-mail, see below. I had to google Luudites. I thought they deserved a small order for their creativity.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]831846[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>First two auction sessions close Saturday October 6, 2018</p><p>Luudites be scared, Jerzy and I are going to use the live auction feature!&nbsp; Drop by to throw admiring real time comments about the coins!</p><p>Cool coins, unusual coins, scarce coins -- all there!&nbsp;&nbsp; Drop by, browse, bid, see which coins hammer down.</p><p><br /></p><p>Paul</p><p>Ephesus Numismatics</p><p>Durham, NC </p><p><br /></p><p>PS - I had to look up Luudites: The Luddites were a radical group of English textile workers and weavers in the 19th century who destroyed weaving machinery as a form of protest. The group was protesting the use of machinery in a &quot;fraudulent and deceitful manner&quot; to get around standard labour practices.</p><p><br /></p><p>PSS - go Astros </p><p>[ATTACH=full]831847[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
