louisvillekyshop CCF Advertiser United States 1306 Posts	Posted 06/30/2019 11:15 am Just liked this coin today so why waste the photos! Plus did they really mean "ROM ET TVG" as the spacing suggests "ROME TAVG" was the intent? 30 mm, 10.48 g, Augustus, As Lugdunum's Altar, 10-7 BC. CAESAR PONT MAX Laureate head of Augustus to right. Rev. ROM ET AVG Front elevation of the Altar of Lugdunum, decorated with the corona civica between laurels and stylized figures; altar flanked by columns surmounted by statues of Victory standing vis-à-vis, each holding a palm frond with her right hand and wreath in her left. BMC 550. Cohen 240. RIC 230. Edited by louisvillekyshop 06/30/2019 11:18 am Report this Post to the Staff

Kushanshah Pillar of the Community United States 1554 Posts	Posted 06/30/2019 3:46 pm ROM ET AVG = ROM[AE] ET AVG[VSTO] = "[consecrated] to Rome and to Augustus", referring to the altar. Edited by Kushanshah 06/30/2019 3:58 pm Report this Post to the Staff
