[QUOTE="TIF, post: 2705783, member: 56859"]What a great assortment of coins of a great empress! A Domna Fecunditas denarius was high on my wish list for a couple of years and I rarely saw any during that time and half of the few were fake. I was willing to get a dog and had lost out on a very nice one. The very nice one came to market again and I got it. Done, right? Nope :) Recently one is much worse condition was offered. The opening price was very low and there weren't many bids. I couldn't just let it pass by. (yeah, I'm a hog :oops:). Not sure if I'll keep it or find it a new home, but for now it's hanging out at my house. [ATTACH=full]609785[/ATTACH] The one from last year: [IMG]https://www.cointalk.com/attachments/domnafecunditasreshoot-rt-jpg.533804/[/IMG] [B]Julia Domna[/B] AR denarius, 19.5mm, 3.17 gm, 6h. Rome mint Struck under Septimius Severus, circa AD 207-211 Obv: IVLIA AVGVSTA; draped bust right Rev: Fecunditas or Tellus (Earth) reclining left under tree, resting arm on basket of fruit and placing hand on celestial orb; standing before her are four children representing the Four Seasons Ref: RIC IV 549 (Septimius Severus); RSC 35 ex R.H.
