<p>[QUOTE=&quot;red_spork, post: 24719886, member: 74282&quot;]This type is probably the single ugliest coin in my collection but entirely attributable(usually a requirement for me) and a type I probably wouldn&#039;t otherwise own had I not found this ugly unattributed example on eBay:</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1581125[/ATTACH]</p><p>Roman Imperatorial period AR Quinarius(1.74g), A. Licinius Nerva, 47 B.C., Rome mint. Helmeted head of Minerva right; behind, NERVA downwards. Border of dots/Victory walking right, holding wreath in right hand and palm-branch over left shoulder with left hand; before, A•LICINI downwards. Border of dots.
