<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Fugio1, post: 3634062, member: 89970&quot;]Great thread.&nbsp; Many rare examples.&nbsp; Here are a few quinarii that haven&#039;t been cited so far:[ATTACH=full]974884[/ATTACH]</p><p>The style of this example is closest to RRC 47/1 because of the visor (top line of the visor is longest of the three.&nbsp; Otherwise the obverse and reverse styles are unlike anything in RRC.&nbsp; Pierluigi Debernardi references this type in his article on the Orzivecchi hoard in NC 2014, where he cites a half dozen examples in such places as BNF and Kestner.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]974900[/ATTACH] </p><p>Not as rare as the denarius, but the upright spearhead quinarius is a remarkable coin with the spearhead symbol a major element of the reverse design, displacing the ROMA legend to less than 2/3 of the exergue. [ATTACH=full]974904[/ATTACH]</p><p>RRC 84/2&nbsp; with reverse Roma acronym is a very scarce coin in any grade.&nbsp; Crawford lists less than 10 obverse and less than 12 reverse dies.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
