I got this many years ago at a local antique coin shop but the seller didn't know much info about it. Does it look authentic? Does anyone have any idea who this is? Seller told me when I bought it that there were 2 soldiers in the back carrying 2 women.Also something about a "king"- like an image of a king, in the 1st century B.C. I dont know if this helps. Cheers! Report this Post to the Staff

Kamnaskires Pillar of the Community United States 7066 Posts	Posted 04/07/2018 11:15 am Have you looked through the coinage of the moneyer L. Titurius L.f. Sabinus? Profile resembles the busts of King Tatius on the obverse of those issues. Edit: yep, pretty sure that's it. Your reverse pic needs to be rotated about 45 degrees counter-clockwise...the imagery depicts a soldier carrying off a Sabine woman in his arms. I'll post side-by-sides soon.
