Domitian, Syria, Antioch
« on: August 14, 2023, 04:45:19 pm »
Hi Board! I would like to share a new coin. I bought it because of the rather decent portrait of Caesar Domitian. 16,7 g, 33 mm.

What do you think? Does anyone here collect larger bronzes from Antioch, Syria?
Please share your coins

Regards,

Robert

That is a nice one! Love the beard/sideburns. Looks like a great patina too.

Thank You Virgil and Curtis for good words.
I like sideburns on this portrait too, its my first coin from Antioch with visible beard of ceasar.
