MAURETANIAN KINGDOM. Juba II, with Cleopatra Selene (25 BC-AD 24). AR denarius (20mm, 3.15 gm, 6h). NGC XF 5/5 - 2/5. Caesarea in Mauretania, ca. AD 11-23. REX IVBA, diademed head of Juba II right / BACIΛICCA KΛЄOΠATPA, diademed and draped bust of Cleopatra left. SNG Copenhagen 8, 566. Mazard 366. Beautiful blue and pink hues; quite an attractive coin in hand. Very rare and one of the finest known.
From the Historical Scholar Collection. Ex Roma Numismatics E-Sale 68 (27 February 2020), lot 232; Phidias Numismatique, Paris; French private collection; Banasa Hoard, discovered in French Morocco in 1907
The Banasa Hoard, deposited around AD 20-24, was found in 1907 near modern day Souk-el Arbaa, 120 km northeast of Rabat, Morocco. The hoard was previously said to be from Alkazar (El Ksar El Kebir), 70 km south of Tangier and hence is occasionally referred to as the El Ksar Hoard. The group contained approximately 4000 silver coins and one bronze. A substantial number of the coins now reside in public collections, principally in London, Paris, Berlin, Athens, New York and Algiers, while most of the coins that remained in private hands ended up in French collections, as would be expected.
