CALIGULA with GERMANICUS, A.D. 37-41. AV Aureus (7.72 gms), Lugdunum Mint, A.D. 38. NGC VF, Strike: 5/5 Surface: 2/5. Edge Damage.
RIC-25; Calico-324. Obverse: Laureate head of Caligula right; Reverse: Bare head of Germanicus right. A VERY RARE and highly desirable type, this is one of the keys to completing a "twelve Caesars" set in gold. Some scattered scuffs and marks in the fields are noted, along with some edge damage, but this nevertheless is a great opportunity for a rather difficult type.
From the Collection of a Gentleman.
Estimate: $15000 - $25000
