ambr0zie Posted March 15 · Member Share Posted March 15 No, but knowing we are fans of the same auction house, I checked to see if it's recent. From that auction I picked my glorious Marius and 2 very nice Faustina II imperials (very nice on a serious note). I also like Laodicea provincials and I have 2 of them. A Macrinus and a Pius, Macrinus being also a very good deal. 14 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

seth77 Posted March 20 · Member Share Posted March 20 (edited) A small 13mm 2.14g brassy 'leaded bronze' unit minted at Lampsacus in Mysia for Augustus: And who's that on the reverse? It's the ithyphallic Priapus with his erection, luckily preserved in full despite the overall worn and corroded condition of the coin.

Benefactor DonnaML Posted March 20 · Benefactor Benefactor Share Posted March 20 (edited) I had no particular "need" for this coin -- not that I ever really do! -- but I really liked the portrait of Maximinus I on the obverse, and the very detailed Victory on the reverse, complete with a small German captive commemorating Maximinus's victories in Germania. Maximinus I Thrax AR Denarius, 236-238 AD, Rome Mint. Obv. Laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust right, seen from behind, MAXIMINVS PIVS AVG GERM / Rev. Victory standing front, head to left, holding wreath in her outstretched right hand and palm frond in her left hand in front of her wings; at her feet to left, German captive seated left, head turned back to right, hands probably tied behind his back, VICTO – RIA GERM. 20 mm., 2.54 g., 12 h. RIC IV-2 23; RSC III 107 (ill. p. 154); BMCRE VI 186-187; Sear RCV III 8318 (ill. p. 80). Purchased from Leu Numismatik AG, Winterthur, Switzerland, Web Auction 29, 25 Feb. 2024, Lot 2235; ex Leu Numismatik AG Web Auction 7, 24 Feb. 2019, Lot 1218; from the S. Pozzi Collection [N.B.: not the famous Dr. Samuel Jean Pozzi (1846-1918), but a different person who was still alive in the late 20th Century!]; ex Peter Höfer FPL 9, June 1981, Lot 277. Perhaps Leu was a bit disingenuous in its 2019 auction of the so-called "S. Pozzi Collection," which it presented without expressly stating that the collection had nothing to do with the famous Pozzi Collection? Leu didn't even implicitly disclose that fact by giving the "new" S. Pozzi's full first name; only the initial. Yes, anyone who read the descriptions carefully would realize that this Pozzi was still alive in the late 20th century, and anyone familiar with the "real" S. Pozzi would know he died a century ago. But I still think there was something a bit shady about the way Leu handled this. I can't help wondering how many people bought "S. Pozzi" coins from Leu's 2019 auction believing they were purchasing coins that had once belonged to the original Dr. Pozzi. Perhaps even this coin, given how relatively quickly it was offered again? After all, the hammer price was 50 CHF lower this time than in 2019. (I wasn't under any illusions myself, since I did a little research before bidding, and am very pleased with the coin!) A second question: does anyone have any explanation of why there's that small "tab" sticking out at 3:00 on the obverse? Not that I ever would, but every time I see it, I feel an impulse to reach out and snap it off at the dotted line, like a saltine! Could it possibly be left over from the process of casting blanks or flans, which, I believe I recall reading, sometimes involved a series of molds attached to each other that were subsequently broken apart? Finally, I've been unable to find out anything regarding the Höfer fixed price lists from the 1970s/1980s, other than the fact that his first name was Peter. I don't even know what country he was in -- presumably Germany or Switzerland. If anyone is aware of anything more, I'd appreciate your letting me know.

Ryro Posted March 21 · Supporter Share Posted March 21 (edited) Welcome @CassiusMarcus! Now that's how to show up to the party🤩 I've been after a Persian daric for a while. But there's the whole paying for one thing... As for my latest, I was going to do a write up on this Celtic rarity and it's little known tribe of origin, but Celtic posts don't get much traction. So here it is: CELTIC IMITATIONS OF MAGNA GRAECIA MELDES/Meldis (Meaux region) 60-40 BCE, bronze, 16.6mm, 2.8g. Degree of rarity: R1 No. in reference works: LT.7617 - DT.587 - BN.7616-7630 - RIG.163 - Sch/GB.512 Obverse legend: E[PENOS]. Obverse description: Male head on the left, long, curly hair, legend in front of the face; gritted. Reverse legend: EPHNOS. Reverse description: Horse galloping to the right, wavy tail, surmounted by a facing bird/ winged rider with outstretched wings, a ringlet pointed below; legend under the horse globule surmounted by a crescent. Unearthed 2023 Burgundy region of France. " The bird which surmounts the horse may be a distortion of a winged rider, present for example on certain Gallic silver and bronze coins. The attribution of this coinage is confirmed to the Meldes despite a very important distribution map on the territories of the Suessions and the Bellovaques. These coins were first reported in Meaux with ROVECA epigraph coins. B. Fischer proposes a ligature between an I and the P; which would give a legend EIPENOS, EPIENOS or even EPLENOS; she opts, in view of various examples of epigraphies, for the legend EPIENOS. History: The Meldes are only mentioned once in Caesar's work. This small people lived between the Seine and the Marne in the Brie plain with Meaux as its capital. The Meldes emancipated themselves late from the tutelage of the Suessions and the Remes at the time of the Gallic War. Having become independent in 57 BC, the Meldes chose to ally themselves with the Romans. Caesar had sixty ships built among the Meldes, in 55 BC, for the expedition to Brittany. Caesar (BG. V, 5)."

Benefactor robinjojo Posted March 21 · Benefactor Benefactor Share Posted March 21 (edited) In my disorganized quest to acquire anything round or roundish, made of some sort of metal and appears older than I am, here's a new style Athenian tetradrachm from the time of Sulla (86-84 AD). Just an overview of Margaret Thompson's plates indicates that lots of these owls appear to have been produced under Sulla, driven it appears by our old friend economic necessity. He needed all the money that he could lay his hands during the war with Mithridates and his allies which included Athens. Having starved Athens into capitulation following a brutal siege in 87 AD, he spared the city from total destruction, merely sacking it, a time-honored practice. These owls were issued in the ensuing few years following the fall of Athens. The owls produced during his occupation are quite distinctive both in their obverse treatment of Athena and the owl on the reverse. The engraving styles can range from good to crude attempts, compared to prior new style owls, indicating that die engravers of varying artistic abilities were employed by the mint. Coins had to be produced quickly, to meet Sulla's demands, a very familiar situation. I've been looking some time for a decent type owl from this turbulent period in the histories of Rome and Greece. What I ended up with is a midrange coin grade-wise. The French firm graded it as an EF. There is no way that this coin is anywhere close. I don't know why they do this, but if you get beyond that issue and just judge the coin on its own merits and faults, good purchases from them are still possible. To me this coin grades Fine, maybe a good Fine for wear with good centering, given the narrower flan. There might also be a case of worn dies, especially on the obverse. A beauty it is not, but it is quite a historical coin. This coin is one of the cruder examples, struck on a typically narrower flan, resulting is some detail off the flan, but the centering is decent. The weight is within the range of other examples listed in the Thompson catalog. The closest match with the Sulla new style owls in the Thompson plates is 1303a. Athens under Roman rule, new style owl, 86-84 AD. ΛAYPIA M[E]TAΛΛA monograms on reverse. Month "A" on the amphora (quite weak). Sulla, Group I, Thompson 1303a. 24mm; 16.43 grams Perhaps this coin is a die match, at least of the obverse, for 1303a?
