[QUOTE="Cucumbor, post: 3655955, member: 4298"]Why in hell [USER=57495]@zumbly[/USER] should this double sestertius be in Z's collection rather than in Q's ? It's on my dream list too, as, after I've completed the Divi series, assembling a denomitation set of TD might be a good extension (and I already have an antoninianus, a sestertius and a semis) Here are my two double sestertii so far (another reason to house your great example here as it wouldn't be alone :D ) [IMG]http://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/albums/userpics/11724/normal_0450-310np_noir.jpg[/IMG] [B] Postumus, Double sestertius - [/B]Cologne mint, AD 261 IMP C M CASS LAT POSTVMVS P F AVG, Radiate bust of Postumus right LAETITIA AVG, Galley travelling left 18.12 gr Ref : Cohen #177, RCV #11049 [IMG]http://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/albums/userpics/11724/0490-390.jpg[/IMG] [B] Aurelian and Severina, Double sestertius - [/B]Rome mint AD 274-275 IMP AVRELIANVS AVG, radiate and cuirassed bust of Aurelian right SEVERINA AVG, diademed and draped bust of Severina right, on crescent 11.18 gr Ref : Cohen # 1, RIC # 2, RCV # 11696 Note : it's still disputed as to whether the Aurelain & Severina is actually a double sestertius or a dupondius because of its light weight, but I prefer the double sestertius idea ;) Q[/QUOTE]
