     Cn. Domitius Calvinus. 39 BC. AR Denarius (3.02 gm). Osca mint.
     OSCA, bearded male head right / DOM. COS. ITER. IMP., simpulum,
     sprinkler, axe and priest's hat. Crawford 532/1; Sear 342; Burgos
     1509. Toned Fine. Rare.

     Cn. Domitius Calvinus was appointed governor of Spain by Octavian
     after that province was ceded by Sextus Pompey, son of Pompey the
     Great. The province was in a state of chaos after years of civil
     war and the rule by Sextus, who governed as little more than a
     brigand. The stern Calvinus, formerly magister equites under
     Caesar, pacified the province, putting down a revolt by the
     Ceretani, although not before subjecting a legionary detachment
     to the ancient punishment of decimation (executing one out of ten
     men) for cowardice in the face of the enemy. The minting of these
     denarii, probably at Osca itself, marks the restoration of Roman
     order in Spain and the renewed flow of Spanish silver to the
     Roman treasury.

     Authenticity unconditionally guaranteed - 14 day return privilege
                              for any reason.

     CNG accepts for payment: check, money order or credit card (Visa,
      MasterCard, American Express). The manner of payment accepted is
                subject to our qualification of the bidder.

        CNG's Domestic, Canadian, and International postage rates.

         Pennsylvania residents please add appropriate sales tax.

                      Bidding is closed for this item.

If you're the seller or the high bidder - now what?

  1. Contact each other. The seller (cngcoins) and the high bidder
     (arquimedes) should contact each other within three business days to
     discuss payment and shipping details.

  2. Leave feedback for the other party once the the seller has received
     the payment and the winning bidder has received the item.
     Leave feedback to seller - Leave feedback to bidder.

Details for the seller and high bidder(s):
The seller should contact the winning bidder(s) with information on the
total cost, including shipping, and where to send payment. The winning
bidder(s) must pay the seller directly for the item(s), and it is the
seller's responsibility to fulfill the order when payment terms are met.
The binding contract of the auction is between the winning bidder and the
seller.

If the seller is unable to establish contact with the high bidder within 3
business days, the seller may contact the next highest bidder. Therefore,
if the high bidder does not contact the seller within 3 business days of
the end of the auction, he/she may lose the place as winning bidder, and be
at risk for receiving negative feedback and/or a Non-Paying Bidder warning,
both of which can ultimately lead to suspension from eBay.
