<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Sulla80, post: 3238034, member: 99456&quot;]Here&#039;s a coin that I will not try to test - but it is a little tempting... a silver denarius of 47 to 46 B.C. from Julius Caesar (shown below) where he claims as ancestors Aeneas, founder of Rome, and the goddess Venus, mother of Aeneas.&nbsp; The coin shows Aeneas carrying his father, Anchises, away from a burning Troy, with Venus on the Obverse. </p><p><br /></p><p>Nothing obvious from the obverse - the reverse a different story: a significant issue near the chipped edge, and an interesting defect extending from the right knee of Aeneas.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]846953[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]846954[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
