Aulus Ambatus, Prefect of Zama Regia
« on: October 02, 2011, 08:38:21 pm »
Can anyone give a reference for this coin of Africa? It was initially identified as Colonia Babba Campestris, Mauretania of Aulus Ambatus but I found him under prefect of municipium of Zama Regia, 27/26 BC. I can find reference to him minting a coin with his portrait but is this the coin? The obverse is indicated as (CM. AMBATUS PRAEF ITER IVLIA), the reverse as (VACAX A TE TIRO AED). Any help for a reference would help. Also any idea of value.

SNGCop 752 looks similar, and says:
"(Zama Regia; Augustan period)"
