<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Ken Dorney, post: 3078776, member: 76086&quot;]I was very happy to have picked this up yesterday.&nbsp; I&#039;m working on a set of sestertii of the 12 Caesars which is much more difficult for base metals than for silver or gold.&nbsp; Sure, there are better examples of these out there but this one had the right eye appeal for me (but may not impress others depending on their taste).&nbsp; I do like my coins with a little wear.&nbsp; They seem to have more history for me.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>The Triumvirs. <i>Octavian and Divus Julius Caesar. </i></b>38 BC. Æ Sestertius (or Dupondius?) (30.8mm, 21.58 g, 4h). Southern Italian(?) mint. Bare head of Octavian right / Wreathed head of Divus Julius Caesar right. Crawford 535/1; cf. Alföldi &amp; Giard 34 (for type); CRI 308; Sydenham 1335; RPC I 620; Type as RBW 1822. Fine, brown surfaces, a few scratches, small pit on obverse.</p><p><br /></p><p><i>From the Andrew McCabe Collection, purchased from Incitatus Coins.</i></p><p><i><br /></i></p><p><i>[ATTACH=full]774892[/ATTACH] </i>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
