<p>[QUOTE=&quot;seth77, post: 2253817, member: 56653&quot;]Reading the very interesting topics of our colleagues Martin and Doug, I have to admit that I got curious about getting involved in the Severan eastern denarii niche. This is my first piece, a rather generic, listed type but at a bargain price:</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><font size="5"><b> SEPTIMIUS SEVERUS AR18mm 3g Denar (aVF but rather worn)</b></font></p><p><br /></p><p>AV: IMP CAE L SEP SEV PERT AVG COS II, laureate head right</p><p><br /></p><p>REV: VICT AVG, Victory walking left, holding wreath in right hand, palm in left.</p><p><br /></p><p>EXE: -</p><p><br /></p><p>REF: RIC IV-1 424, BMCRE 395, RSC 675a Scarce, Emesa mint, 194AD.</p><p><br /></p><p>This one from what I gather is rather typical of the Emesa style and not that scarce as it has the usual COS II obv. legend. </p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry for not presenting a more interesting and rarer issue but I&#039;m quite curious to see if I&#039;m actually hooked on these eastern denarii <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]446257[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
