<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Carthago, post: 2390128, member: 76111&quot;]This is sort of an interesting die that I haven&#039;t ever seen other than on my coin.&nbsp; Note, there&#039;s only one sailor on the galley.&nbsp; Volodya once told me the he thought it was centering mark and that the die just wasn&#039;t finished.&nbsp; Plausible, as it does look to be in the center of the coin.&nbsp; Anyway, I&#039;ve always thought it was interesting and I&#039;d like to find another Legionary issue of Antony that uses this obverse die, but so far I haven&#039;t.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Autumn 32-spring 31 BC. AR Denarius (16mm, 3.60 g, 6h). Legionary issue.&nbsp; Praetorian galley right / Aquila right between two signa; LEG VI across lower field. Crawford 544/19; CRI 356; Sydenham 1223; RSC 33.</p><p><br /></p><p>Feel free to pile on with die oddities or whatever you want.&nbsp; These things take on a life of their own...in a good way!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]490955[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
