[QUOTE="robinjojo, post: 5125182, member: 110226"]I just received two coins, a denarius of Sabina, and an Alexandrian tetradrachm of Hadrian and Sabina. Both coins are in "generic" NGC slabs with minimal information. The tetradrachm is well documented online. Roman Empire, 117-138 AD BI tetradrachm Emperor Hadrian and Empress Sabina Alexandria Year 13 (128/9 AD) Obv.: AVT KAI TPAI AΔPIA CЄB, laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust right of Hadrian. Rev.: CABINA CЄBACTH, draped bust right of Sabina, L IΓ (date) upward behind. Köln 997 [ATTACH=full]1202586[/ATTACH] The denarius is a little more problematic in terms of identification. This coin has the Concordia reverse, but without any legend. I have seen this reverse with the legend, but with a different portrait on the obverse. Does anyone in CT-land have any ideas? Is there a RIC # for this coin? Thanks Roman Empire, 117-138 AD AR denarius Empress Sabina Obverse: SABINA AVGVSTA HADRIANI AVG PP, portrait of Sabina facing right. Reverse: Concordia seated, facing left. [ATTACH=full]1202590[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
