    So, I don’t actively look for Roman provincials from Spain. But, when you go to a show and pick up something like this, you can’t leave without it. So much for “show discipline.”

    My woeful camera photos can’t do this coin justice.

    29mm 10.9 grams

    RPC 1, 419

    Nice! I like the tilt of the bull’s head, a “you lookin at me?” look.

    I have my own Spanish bull, but of Augustus.
