 Time of Augustus (?), AE17, (2.58g) Cyprus, Scorpion. / Capricorn
     right, star above. RPC3916. VF, dark patina. A puzzling coin with
     no legends attributed tentatively to the reign of Augustus. The
     weight standard is lower than RPC3906-7. Since the Capricorn was
     also a symbol of Vespasian, could this piece be from his reign?
     It may be a tessera rather than a coin.
