<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Andrew McCabe, post: 3779990, member: 90666&quot;]Series: rostrum tridens, trident, rudder and bird, helmet, thunderbolt, knife, sow, dog, ram or heifer, meta, VAR, female head, shield and carnyx, staff and feather</p><p><br /></p><p>Some notable coins:</p><p>- RRC 114 rostrum tridens semis, missing the symbol = McCabe group J1 (this coin illustrated in Essays Russo)</p><p>- trident denarius ex R. Ratto November 1933 FPL VIII</p><p>- rudder denarius ex Leu 17 Nicolas collection and Peter Hoefer collection</p><p>- thunderbolt triens note the exceptional flan</p><p>- sow denarius ex Frederick Hastings Rindge Collection (1857–1905) collection loaned to Boston Museum of Fine Arts cf. 1902 curator&#039;s report &quot;we have the Frederick Hastings Rindge Collection as a loan, of which 1105 specimens are exhibited, the majority being Roman of the Republican period&quot;</p><p>- heifer or ram denarius - extremely rare; the identity of the animal is long debated. Charles Hersh believes it a heifer, Michael Crawford a ram; having viewed the as of this series in the Vatican museum, am inclined to agree with Crawford. The coin is broken and repaired and was gifted to me by Arturo and Giuliano Russo - long story behind that break, for another time!</p><p>- shield and carnyx denarius ex Naville Ars Classica 8 (25 June 1924) lot 152 Clarence S.
