Denarius. 18 mm. 2.66 grams. MARTI PACIFERO Mars holding branch and reversed (point down) spear. Mars brings and ensures peace. He was a young man when he came to the throne and this portrait shows it well. Nice young portrait. Well-centered and well-struck. You can see the beard on Mars. Interesting version of Mars. The legend reminds me of President Regan's "Peacemaker" nuclear missiles.[/QUOTE]
