[QUOTE="Roman Collector, post: 6505037, member: 75937"]This provincial of Julia Domna from Stobi isn't the oldest coin in my collection, but I've had it for seventeen years now since I bought it from [URL='http://numismatics.org/davidhendin/']David Hendin[/URL] of Amphora coins in October, 2003. [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 that [USER=19463]@dougsmit[/USER] would say Victory-Nemesis is "just standing there." But because the coin is "just 17" and Victory is "standing there": [MEDIA=youtube]mwBdWVTR-o8[/MEDIA][/QUOTE]
