Denarius after 211, AR 20mm., 4.30g. Helmeted head of Roma r.; behind, X. Rev. The Dioscuri galloping r.; below, ROMA in linear frame. Sydenham 311. RBW –. Crawford 53/2.
This anonymous type likely relates to the spearhead issue Crawford 88, as do Crawford pl.X,17-18 (as Crawford 53); however the style of this piece is particularly fine in comparison to other Crawford 53 or Crawford 88 examples.
Lovely old cabinet tone. Extremely Fine.
Ex Finarte sale 972, 1996, 105. Previously privately purchased from Ratto.
