Message:: [QUOTE="Alegandron, post: 2948821, member: 51347"]According to Sear's Roman Coins and Their Values, Vol 1:"During the early years of their long association the two principal triumvars honoured each other frequently on their coin issues, beginning with the series commemorating the establishment of the Second Triumvirate in November of 43 BC.  These issues ceased abruptly about 5 years later and Antony and Octavian never even met again after Antony's departure from Italy in the late summer of 37." There are Sear 1501 through 1507 listed under this section.  My coin, above, is 1507 or the last of the series.  It has a description of [Italy, late 40 - early 39 BC], however no listing as to a Moneyer or issuing authority. My above attribution is what I received from a friend of mine who sold me the coin.  There is a conflict between the two as to where the Mint was.  Sear DOES state that it is Crawford 528-2a, and Crawford describes it as "Southern or central Italian mint".  I am tending towards Sear's attribution, making the attribution I posted above as incorrect.  Mea Culpa.
