[QUOTE="Michael Stolt, post: 3341534, member: 100445"]Thank you very much, it really is a wonder in hand. Your specimen of the second quinarii type struck there looks very nice as well. These are really really difficult to get in good condition. I was lucky enough to win this "Republican-Provincial" at auction last year as well. So to get a nice "Fulvia trio" I now need to find a nice specimen of L. Mussidius Longus (Cr. 494/40), there is one die in the series that also is supposed to bear the resemblance of her. [IMG]http://www.ancientcoingallery.net/Files/Images/Coinsite/CoinDB/FULVIA1_-_Kopia.jpg[/IMG] Fulvia, first wife of Mark Antony. Circa 41-40 BC. Æ 23 (7.48 g). Zmertorix, the son of Philonides, magistrate. Minted in Eumeneia (as Fulvianon), PHRYGIA. Obverse: Bust of Fulvia (as Victory) right. Reverse: Minerva standing left, holding shield and spear; [ΦOYΛOYIANON] in right field, [Z]MEPTOPIΓOΣ/[Φ]IΛΩNIΔOΥ] in two lines in left field. Reference: RPC I 3139[/QUOTE]
