                                Description

     This piece was minted circa 46 BC under the authority of the
     moneyer T. Carisius. The obverse type depicts the head of Roma
     right, with ornate crest and legend ROMA behind. The reverse
     features emblems of power, a cornucopiae on celestial globe
     between sceptre and rudder. The legend for this type reads
     T.CARISI., and the entire design is enclosed within a wreath.
     This is one of a series of types connected with the triumphs of
     Julius Caesar and the traditions of his family. The symbols of
     power are undoubtedly meant to refer to the vast power that
     Caesar had acquired by 46 BC. Coin is a bit off center,
     especially on the reverse, but otherwise grades F+, with mostly
     clear devices and full reverse legend. A nice example of this
     interesting and scarcer type, catalouged as Carisia 4. Buyer pays
     postage/insurance, coin shipped on clearance of funds. PA
     residents please add appropriate sales tax. MC/Visa accepted for
     orders over $20. For more ancients, please visit my WWW site at
