Three Flavian Provincials
« on: June 25, 2020, 08:08:20 pm »
Hello all!

This week I'm really happy to have added 3 awesome provincials.


The first is a wonderful large bronze struck for Vespasian by Agrippa II.

The second is an eye-appealing Domitian diobol from Alexandria.

And the third one is a personal 'grail' coin I have wanted for a very long time.

Thank you for looking!

Hi David,

My favorite of the three is your "Caesarea Paneas, 73-74 AD". Appealing coin and i like that it was minted in Northern Palestine  ::)
