wwhitman Pillar of the Community United States 1415 Posts	Posted 08/16/2008 2:06 pm This one is quite unusual. It is really bronze bronze. Not the black patina that normally is present? It is 28mm in diameter and 3mm thick. On the obverse is father/ son facing? Any help on this one would be appreciated.

KurtS Pillar of the Community United States 5318 Posts	Posted 08/16/2008 3:52 pm Would this perhaps (not) a coin celebrating the political union/marriage of ~~Marc Antony and Octavia (sister of Augustus)~~? Better answers will come...soon Edited by KurtS 08/16/2008 4:31 pm Report this Post to the Staff
Sir Ferrari Pillar of the Community United States 671 Posts	Posted 08/16/2008 4:03 pm My best guess is the early third century (Severan period). Maybe Elagabalus? Like I said in the other post, these confronting busts are usually limited to this period in the provinces. Edited by Sir Ferrari 08/16/2008 4:04 pm Report this Post to the Staff

Reference is Varbanov 1085 with (possibly) an obverse die match to the onr he has illustrated Malcolm My Papal States coin collection: https://diadumenian.com/Papal%20Sta...0States.html Medieval coins collection: https://diadumenian.com/Congressofp...0Europe.html Indian Rupee Collection: https://diadumenian.com/Congressofp...0Rupees.html Minor world Silver: https://diadumenian.com/Congressofp...20coins.html Edited by Bacchus2 08/16/2008 4:14 pm Report this Post to the Staff
