[Image][Image] Description: We are pleased to offer this scarce ancient Roman Republican silver denarius of P. Aelius Paetus for your consideration . This 2100+ year old coin, which was minted in 138 BC, features a large portrait of Roma on the obverse and a very dramatic reverse of the gods Castor and Pollux on horseback. Both sides of this coin still maintain very pleasing detail and a beautiful luster. We've placed a very low minimum for a coin of this beauty and rarity. Here's a chance to add this classic early Roman coin to your collection without spending a fortune. Obverse: Helmeted of Roma facing right with X behind. Reverse: The gods Castor and Pollux on horseback galloping right with P. PAETVS below and ROMA in exergue. Size: 17 mm ( 5/8" ) Weight: 3.76 grams Reference :Sear 110 * THE DANGERS OF LAST MINUTE BIDDING : Almost without fail after an auction has closed we receive emails from bidders who claim they were attempting to place a bid and were unable to get into eBay. There is nothing we can do to help bidders who were "locked out" while trying to place a "last minute" bid. All we can do in this regard is to urge you to place your bids early. If you're serious in your intent to become a winning bidder please avoid eBay's high traffic during the close of an auction. Its certainly your choice how you handle your bidding, but we'd rather see you a winner instead of being left out during the last minute scramble. * AUTHENTICITY : We are a member of the American Numismatic Association.
