[QUOTE="Eduard, post: 2544007, member: 8959"]ancientcoinguru, it is nice to meet you, too. Mikey Zee, than you very much for your kind comments. While I was obviously aware in general terms of the historical context and background of the Judaea Capta coinage, I confess it was primarily the tan-on-green patina which captured my attention at first.... Only later, while reading and learning, did I better recognize the historical significance of this coinage. Nemo, congratulations on your two examples, and thank you very much for the detailed explanations. This is very useful. The RIC 468 is very nicely detailed and has a nice patina. It is a lovely coin; and, of course, your Domitianus as caesar/Titus Judaea Capta mule speaks for itself. The only know example!! lucky guy! I was not aware that Judaea Capta coins had been issued in the name of Domitianus...but its existence does makes sense. In my first post I mentioned BMCRE 581. My coin was apparently struck with the same dies as the B.M example. Here is the B.M example. Beautiful coin. [ATTACH=full]545553[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
