[QUOTE="John Anthony, post: 1887813, member: 42773"]I may have overdosed on Romans this month: 10 coins - but I've had some exceedingly good luck with auctions lately. Three more arrived today, so I'll post them as I get the pics and attributions edited. I've got three left in the mail, so as soon as they arrive, I'll get a team picture. That should wrap it up for Romans for a while, but maybe not. Actually, it's highly unlikely, so never mind. [B] Pautalia, Geta, 189-211 [/B] AE18, 3.6g, 12h; Thrace, Pautalia Obv.: CЄΠΤΙ ΓΕΤΑC Κ; bareheaded, draped, cuirassed bust right. Rev.: ΟΥΛΠΙΑC ΠΑΥΤΑΛΙΑC; fourfold coiled serpent, with head erect right. Reference: Varbanov II, 5410 (p. 452) var. Notes: Varbanov's coin has a laureate head. [ATTACH=full]321318[/ATTACH] I'm not certain of this attribution at all. Varbanov doesn't include a pic with this catalog listing, the head on my coin is bare, and I'm not sure what he means by the serpent's head being erect. A picture really is worth a thousand words.[/QUOTE]
