<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Roman Collector, post: 4079453, member: 75937&quot;]I am not convinced there is an example of your coin in the British Museum collection. Unfortunately, the British Museum search function is down, but looking at BMCRE3, pl. 32.7 (BMC 859), I&#039;m quite sure that&#039;s not your coin. The museum has several examples, BMCRE3 857-862, which have either unclear details or differ in the postures and attributes of the figures on the roof and inside the temple. I&#039;m not even sure your coin has five figures on the roof as described in the BMC listings.</p><p><br /></p><p>Mattingly does not postulate the identity of the temple, though he does say that Cohen&#039;s attribution to Jupiter is in error.</p><p><br /></p><p>Tameanko does not discuss this coin, nor the Temple of Honos, in <i>Monumental Coins</i>.</p><p><br /></p><p>Sorry I was not more helpful.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
