<p>[QUOTE=&quot;6512a08bdf5f3, post: 24718552, member: 149689&quot;]Thanks for the interesting article. I&#039;m curious if you can identify the coin shown by Mary Beard in her YouTube video, &quot;What was normal life like in Pompeii before its destruction?&quot;&nbsp; At about 11:30 she shows the verso (only) of a worn silver denarius(?) showing the partial profile of a chariot with four horses standing (not the usual ruining or rearing pose), facing right, and the taught reins forming a distinct triangle over the back of the rear horse.&nbsp; The coin comes from a hoard of gold and silver coins carried by a young woman trying to escape the city. I spent several hours looking over online images of late Roman Republic and early Imperial coins without finding a single match. / SF[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
