<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Orfew, post: 3117252, member: 74968&quot;]Congratulations on this wonderful acquisition. I really enjoyed reading about Cellini and the coins he designed. I wish you luck on getting the next target coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is one of my favourite coins at the moment. I recently posted about finally getting a lifetime portrait denarius of Julius Ceasar. This coin was issued ten years earlier by Brutus one of the chief plotters and assassins.</p><p><br /></p><p>This is an important coin because it identifies Liberty as one of the prime motivations behind the actions of Brutus. He was worried that the dictatorship of Julius Caesar would lead to the end of Liberty.</p><p><br /></p><p>Marcus Junius Brutus (54 BC). AR denarius</p><p>(20.36 mm 4.04 g.). Rome.</p><p>Obv: Head of Libertas right</p><p>Rev: The consul Lucius Junius Brutus walking left between two lictors, carrying axes over their shoulders, and preceded by an accensus; BRVTVS in exergue.</p><p>Crawford 433/1. Sydenham 906. RSC Junia 31.</p><p>Purchased March 23, 2017 from Munzenkontor Kornbum on MA-Shops</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]792409[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
