High quality and extra rare Domitian Denarius
« on: April 08, 2020, 09:35:53 am »
Hello everyone.

The Covid 19 epidemic is slowing down shipments, but in the end even this long-awaited coin has reached its final destination, my home.

It is without doubt one of the most beautiful denarii in my collection, a real joy for the eyes.

I'm pleased to share it here.

Stay safe, wherevere you are

Alberto

A most lovely coin Alberto. Oddly enough, different dies than my own specimen.

Glad to hear you are doing OK.

An excellent denarius.

Same reverse die as mine; according to my notes your coin come from "Harlan Berk BBS 168, 2010, lot 246.

Thanks a lot! The auction house provided no clue about the provenance.
