[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 6491528, member: 19463"]That is a very special Domna. Congratulations. My favorite Athena/Minerva is a Septimius Severus 'Emesa' denarius (so not a Provincial since it was made in the East to fund the civil and Parthian wars) where she is shown with an owl. I thought it might be unique but CNG sold another last year. That is what usually happens with coins you thought were rare. [ATTACH=full]1259356[/ATTACH] 'Emesa' was fond of this goddess showing her in several other poses. None are common.
