[QUOTE="Roman Collector, post: 8292986, member: 75937"]Very cool! I like dual portrait coins! Good for you both, [USER=82616]@David Atherton[/USER] and [USER=42773]@John Anthony[/USER]. I have only one coin from Stobi, one of Julia Domna with the usual Victoria-Nemesis reverse type. I bought this one from David Hendin at Amphora nearly 20 years ago: [IMG]https://www.cointalk.com/attachments/domna-stobi-jpg.577618/[/IMG] Julia Domna AD 193-217. Roman provincial Æ 25.4 mm, 9.3 g, 7 h. Macedon, Stobi, AD 196-211. Obv: IVLIA AVGVST, bare-headed and draped bust, r. Rev: MVNIC STOBE, Victory-Nemesis advancing left, holding wreath and palm; wheel before. Refs: Moushmov 6548; Josifvoski 264; Varbanov 3891; cf. BMC 5.104,8. I don't post this coin often because the reverse type isn't special -- it's one where [USER=19463]@dougsmit[/USER] would say Victory-Nemesis is "just standing there."[/QUOTE]
