[QUOTE="robinjojo, post: 4561953, member: 110226"]I really don't know a whole lot about these cast coins. I have a couple for "type", and I was wondering if you could help me with the attribution of one. I posted this coin in an earlier thread. This is an Aes Grave semis, that I believe was produced in Rome between 241-235 BC. On the obverse is the head of Minerva facing left, with a horizontal S below. The reverse has a female head facing left, with a faint and crude horizontal S below. There is supposed to be a sickle to the right of the head, but I don't see any sign of one. The catalog/reference numbers that I have for this coin is Thurlow/Vecchi 37; Crawford 25/5; Haeberlin plate 31. The weight is 141.6 grams. Does that seem right to you? Thank you.
