Rev - PACI AVGVSTAE; Victory adv. right, with wreath and palm; at lower right, star; annulet beneath
Minted in Ephesus, A.D. 74
References:- RIC 1457. BMCRE 475. RSC 277.
Dimensions:- 22.04 mm x 19.07 mm

Severely double struck.

It looks like there was a very off-centre initial strike and the coin was re-struck with a central strike.

Obv: [* ]MOnTA • LADISLAI • DEI [• G], Patriarchal cross, K-R (privy mark) in fields.

Rev: [+ TEMPOR]E • [IO • GVBER]nATORI, Bohemian lion facing left.

Struck in 1452 per Huszár or post 1447 (probably 1452) per Pohl to pay laborers (per Pohl). This is a mule (Although not noted as such in Huszár, it is stated to be a mule in Unger and Pohl. It was listed as Unger 493 in the first edition of that catalog, but is not listed in the second edition). The “obverse” of this coin is the obverse of a denar (Huszár 654, Pohl 160-3, Unger 505c, Réthy II 183) struck on behalf of Ladislaus V by the Hussite warlord Jan Giskra in 1447-1450 (per Pohl, Huszár and Unger). The “reverse” is the obverse of a denar (Huszár 620, Pohl 177, Unger 486, Réthy II 157A) struck by János Hunyadi in 1447-1450 (per Huszár and Unger) or 1447-1451 (per Pohl). The privy mark is a collective mark struck in Kremnitz (formerly Körmöcbánya, Hungary, now Kremnica, Slovakia) that was used on both types in all those years (per Pohl).

Huszár/Pohl rarity rating R1. The reverse legend in Huszár differs from that in Réthy only in that there is a final “S” in the legend in Huszár. This coin appears to comport with Réthy.

This privy mark was struck in Kremnitz (formerly Körmöcbánya, Hungary, now Kremnica, Slovakia) by Petrus Jung, kammergraf (per Pohl).

The type was struck ca. 1453-1454 (per Huszár, Pohl and Unger). This privy mark was struck in Alsólendva (now Lendava, Slovenia) by the Bánfi family (per Pohl).

Note: Ladislaus I (László in Hun.) (1077-1095) was canonized in 1192. His name typically appeared, albeit in an increasingly decaying form, on the reverse of 12th century emissions, and his stylized image and name appeared on this and other later emissions.

Huszár rarity rating 7; Pohl rarity rating 6. The obverse legend as described in Huszár begins with a rosette, whereas that legend, as described and depicted in Unger and Réthy begins with a cross (and ends with a rosette). The legend on this coin appears to begin with a rosette and lacks the cross, as per Huszár. The reverse legend, as described by Huszár, has a pellet on either side of the initial S, whereas those pellets are lacking in the legend, as depicted in Unger and Réthy. The (bungled) legend on this coin lacks the pellets, as per Unger and Réthy.

This privy mark was tentatively struck as a civic mark in Schmöllnitz/Szomolnok, now Smolnik, Slovakia (per Pohl).

“Owing to inner strife and disordered general conditions, the coins [of this period] were usually minted with extremely low precious metal content; moreover, poor mintages were often struck with negligently engraved dies. As a result of the hurried, superficial minting, it was sometimes doubtful whether a faulty coin had been issued officially, or was a forgery” (Huszár 1963).

Obv: IMP CAESAR VESPAS AVG COS V TR P P P; Head of Vespasian, laureate, r.

Acquired from Beast Coins, March 2011.

The obverse is a die match to the RIC plate coins 1457 and 1458. Interestingly, 'COS V' appears to be engraved over an earlier date (COS IIII).

Wonderful Ephesus style portrait on the obverse.

Ephesus stopped minting Imperial denarii in 74 AD. Mysteriously, a series of denarii were minted in 76 in Asia Minor with no apparent purpose. The mint is thought to be Ephesus as well. However, previously the mint had excellent quality control...the 76 series lacks all of that and then some! Mules, muddled titles (PON MAX for Titus!), and reverse types mixed between Vespasian, Titus, and Domitian. A truly odd series. Most likely minted for local use.

This Titus denarius from the series has no blundered mistakes. A fabulous portrait, different in style from the previous Ephesus series but still artistic, IMHO.

Gadara was situated south of the river Hieromax, today Yarmouk River. Therefore the river-god probably is the Hieromax. In AD 636 was fought at the Yarmouk River the decisive battle of the Arabs under Khalid ibn-al-Walid against the much greater army of the Byzantine Empire which ended in the total defeat of the Byzantines. They lost the provinces of Mesopotamia, Syria and Phoenica and couldn't hold Egypt for long. They never could recover from this desaster. It was the beginning of the rise of the Muslims and the decline of the Byzantine Empire which ended in AD 1457 in the conquest of Constantinopolis.

Titus_as_Caesar_RIC_II_V1481.jpg
Titus as Caesar RIC II V1481Titus as Caesar. 69-79 A.D. Uncertain Asian Mint (“o” mint). 76 A.D. (2.89g, 18.4mm, 6h). Obv: T CAES IMP VESP CENS, laureate head r., annulet below tip of neck. Rev: COS V, across field; eagle standing left, head right, wings half raised, on altar. VF. RIC II V1481 (R), BMC 485, RPC 1457. Ex. Harry N. Sneh Collection.

A scarce issue from the elusive “o” mint in operation for the Flavians in 76 A.D. Showing the scarcity of this issue, this same obverse die was used for the RIC plate coin for 1482, BMC pl. 17.14, and my two other Titus “o” mint coins V1485 and V1486.
