L. Livineius Regulus (ca. 42 BC). AR denarius (18mm, 3.89 gm, 12h). NGC Choice XF 3/5 - 4/5, brockage. Rome. REGVLVS-•PR•, bare head of the praetor L. Livineius Regulus right / Brockage of obverse. Crawford 494/27. Sydenham 1109. Livineia 10.

From the Historical Scholar Collection. Ex Freeman & Sear, private sale with old dealer tag

The identity of the obverse portrait is something of a mystery, but the most likely candidate is a Praetor Lucius Livineius Regulus, probably the moneyer's father, who was one of Caesar's backers and partners in the 50s and 40s BC.
