Another Domitian PONT denarius
« on: October 05, 2019, 05:21:38 pm »
I was lucky enough to grab this one before anyone else noticed it. It is my 4th PONT denarius and I am always looking for more. I love the early denarii of Domitian. I like the Minerva with Victory and spear on the reverse. There are only 3 types for Domitian with with reverse: RIC 29 (R3), RIC 30 (R2) and RIC 99 (R). I have both RIC 29 and RIC 99. I would love to have an example of the 3rd type (RIC 30).

Last week I missed one that a fellow Forum member was able to acquire. It was a lovely coin with a very rare Obverse legend (only 3 types listed by RIC). This one is not as lovely but I will gladly welcome it into my collection.
