Ancients
Nerva (AD 96-98). AE as (27mm, 9.00 gm, 6h). Choice XF, tooled. Rome, AD 97. IMP NERVA CAES AVG-P M TR P COS III P P, laureate head of Nerva right / AEQVITAS-AVGVSTI, Aequitas standing facing, head left, scales in right hand, cornucopia in left. Cf. RIC II 77 (reverse legend). Evidence of tooling, thus ineligible for encapsulation.
From the Historical Scholar Collection. Ex Kirk Davis, private sale with old dealer tag
It appears likely the reverse legend, which is unknown for Nerva bronzes with Aeqvitas and the Avgvsti ending in I, indicates the die was reused from Domitian.
