kapphnwn Posted November 22, 2022 · Supporter Share Posted November 22, 2022 R is for Roman Sicily Entella Ae 20 50-40 BC Obv Bust of Helios right radiate and draped. Rv Tyche standing left holding cornucopia HGC 237 This coin illustrated. 6.78 grms 20 mm Photo by W. Hansen This coin is a far cry from the magnificent coinage produced in the region starting in the later half of the sixth century BC In fact it is downright ugly. But paraphrase Josef Stalin ... really ugly does have a charm all of its own. This coin was likely minted in response to needs caused by the civil war between Sextus Pompey and Octavian. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
