VisigothKing Pillar of the Community United States 4778 Posts	Posted 08/11/2013 11:03 pm My second denarius since last year, this one of Julia Soaemias, mother of the infamous Elagabalus. Simply put, didn't have her, and it looked nice, so I threw my bid in and won the coin Julia Soaemias AR Denarius Obv: IVLIA SOAEMIAS AVG, draped bust right Rev: VENVS CAELESTIS, Venus seated left, holding scepter, extending her hand to Cupid standing before her Rome mint, struck 220 AD RIC 243 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julia_Soaemias (seller's photos) Edited by VisigothKing 08/11/2013 11:03 pm Report this Post to the Staff
