Romancollector Posted April 15, 2023 · Member Share Posted April 15, 2023 Perhaps not quite "chinless" but I do think this portrait of Ancus Marcius has a receding chin! RR Denarius of L. Marcius Philippus, which I picked up in the last Kunker sale from the Frizotto Bauss collection I always liked the type because of the veristic portraiture. Let's see another veristic Republican portrait (not Ancus) 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
