Hristova-Hoeft-Jekov, Nikopolis Addenda #7
« on: March 09, 2019, 10:38:23 am »
Dear friends of Nikopolis ad Istrum!

Today I got the 1st copy of Hristova-Hoeft-Jekov, Nicopolis ad Istrum, 2019. It contains altogether 2579 types on 572 pp., all described and depicted b/w. It is the most comprehensive book about the coinage of Nikopolis ad Istrum worldwide. The book can be ordered from me by PM. It is printed on demand. The price is €115.- + shipping. Here I have the statistics oft the last 7 editions:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
sum                                 1830  1984 2210  2331  2482 2561 2579


But this is not the end of the story. The chase for new types goes on! Because the edition 2019 is from February 2019 only the coins until #041 are added to this edition. Therefore I post the coins from #042 upwards to Nikopolis Addenda 27 again. So they can be added to a further edition.

So please see this thread as integral supplement of Nikopolis 2019! In any case the year of the edition should Always be added to the refeernce number, because sometimes the listed numbers have changed!

Thanks
Jochen

A new rev. description for Severus

Septimius Severus, AD 193-211
AE 17, 3.35g
obv. AV K L C - CEVHROC
       Laureate head r.
rev. NIKOPOLIT PROC ICT.
       Altar with basket (cista mystica?) from which a snake is coiling up
ref. a) not in AMNG
      b) not in Varbanov
      c) Hristova-Hoeft-Jekov (2018) 8.14.47.31 corr.
emiliyan_pavlov, Ebay, September 2018

This type was described as "altar, on which snake is coiling, head l." This new coin has far the best preserved rev. I have seen. And now my suspicion that the old description is not correct is proven. It can't be a snake alone because there are structures above the altar not compatible with a snake. So I think it is a basket or a similar container in which the snake is coiling up.

Was in error described as "Bear walking r.". Because of the raised tail I think it rather a lion than a panther. Because of the missing mane I vote for a lioness.
