<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Carausius, post: 2768424, member: 76440&quot;]I noticed the coin for sale too.&nbsp; Had I not over-extended my budget in some recent auctions, I might have beat you to the purchase!&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I disagree with one aspect of the description of the coin: I don&#039;t believe that&#039;s a garlanded reverse die, rather it is a garlanded cap.&nbsp; The cap is an attribute of Vulcan, the god of smiths and metalworkers.&nbsp; Note the roundish top. If it were a die, it&#039;d be awfully difficult to strike with that rounded top![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
