                                Description

     This piece was minted circa 82 BC under the authority of the
     moneyer L. Censorinus. The obverse type depicts the laureate head
     of Apollo facing right. The reverse type features the satyr,
     Marsyas, standing left with wine-skin on shoulder, Column
     surmounted by draped figure (Minerva?) behind, with legends L.
     CENSOR before the satyr. THis type refers to the musical contest
     between Apollo and Marsyas, which was attended with such
     disastrous consequences to the latter. This example shows a bit
     of reddish patina on the obverse, but otherwise grades F/F+, with
     mostly clear devices and complete reverse legend visible. A nice
     example of the type, catalouged as Marcia 24. 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
     www.philly.infi.net/~mdgeary/ . Thanks!
