<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Michael Stolt, post: 3346897, member: 100445&quot;]Some lovely coins from all. I&#039;m yet to acquire any anonymous symbol silver yet so I&#039;ll give you this extremely rare late 2nd century BC AS. I prefer to go with Mark Passehls attribution on these placing the bronze series at a Sardinian mint ca 103 BC for local circulation there, may explain why the series is so extremely rare, anyways, the symbol here is a palm branch, sadly it isn&#039;t that visible on mine so I&#039;m including a picture with one visible from the British Museums specimen.</p><p><br /></p><p>C. Sulpicius. 103 BC. AE AS (30mm, 32.68g). Unknown Sardinian mint.</p><p><br /></p><p>Obverse: Laureate head of Janus, mark of value above.</p><p><br /></p><p>Reverse: Prow right, above C·SVLPI, palm-branch in front and below; ROMA.</p><p><br /></p><p>Reference: Crawford 312/2.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://www.ancientcoingallery.net/Files/Images/Coinsite/CoinDB/sulpiciacroped.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]886243[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
