[QUOTE="curtislclay, post: 5196167, member: 89514"]Even a worn sestertius of Plautilla will cost a mint, but her PIETAS AVGG and VENVS VICTRIX middle bronzes come up now and again at reasonable prices. Considerably rarer, almost never seen, are her two other middle bronze types, CONCORDIA AVGG (seated) and PROPAGO IMPERI. I had a silver quinarius of Plautilla, which went to the BM in 1992 with the rest of my post-193 first collection, and is now visible in their online collection. That coin is interesting not only for the rare denomination, but for its VENVS FELIX rev. type, which appears only here in Plautilla's coinage. Cucumbor, I recognize from your photo that I am now the owner of your Plautilla drachm of Caesarea, purchased from Jacquier 48, 18 Sept. 2020, lot 284![/QUOTE]
