The Pompeians

[vince76]

After the heavy rains and very low temperatures, finally, a very nice day for MD. 4°C at 6.30 A.M., no wind and a little bit cloudy.
A few coins and this set of knifes.




Almost, before getting back to the car, the Roman silver showed itself.


The Pompeians. Q. Sicinius and C. Coponius. 49 BC. AR Denarius (17.5mm, 3.96 g, 8h). Military mint in the East, moving with Pompey; C. Coponius, praetor. Diademed head of Apollo right; star below, Q • SICINIVS III • VIR around / Club of Hercules surmounted by lion skin, scalp in profile to right; arrow to left, bow to right, C • COPONIVS • PR • S • C

Cheers
Thank you
