Julius Caesar, as Imperator (January-February 44 BC), with Publius Sepullius Macer, as Moneyer. AR denarius (18mm, 3.85 gm, 2h). NGC XF★ 5/5 - 5/5, Fine Style. Rome. CAESAR•IMP, laureate head of Julius Caesar right, eight-pointed star behind / P•SEPVLLIVS-MACER, Venus Victrix standing facing, head left, Victory left in right hand, scepter set on star in left. Crawford 480/5b. Sydenham 1071. This specimen is vastly superior among Julius Caesar denarii for three important reasons - unlike many examples, the strike is fully even throughout with no signs of weakness; both sides have all details present because of the careful centering and excellent flan; and finally the dies were masterfully engraved with a truly exceptional portrait. As a bonus, the toning is breathtaking. Surely to be a lot with spirited bidding.
