<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 5256557, member: 19463&quot;]As I recall, this type is special as the first Roman coin honoring an accomplishment of the man who issued it rather than his ancestor.&nbsp; The obverse shows the surrender of King Aretas to the Romans in 62BC for which Scaurus was happy to take credit. The coin was issued a bit later as a special hoint issue of Scaurus and a fellow Curile Aedile.&nbsp; Your coin is much better than most only lacking the word Rex before the king&#039;s name. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]1219439[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
