RIC541. VF, light obverse scratches, good style portrait. This example of an issue of denarii has a laureate head right of fine style, with no legend. (RIC 542) The reverse has a capricorn, the birth sign of Augustus, with the word AVGVSTVS below it, and a star above. A similar capricorn and star appears on Cypriot tesserae of the reign of Augustus. The die axis is 12:00, and the weight peak is slightly low. The obverse border is dotted, while the reverse border is linear. A slightly different portrait is on a very similar type. (RIC 541). The reverse has AVGVSTVS, with a capricorn right, a cornucopia on its back, holding a globe, with a rudder attached. The types are identical, to an issue of denarii in the West (RIC 126) but of very different non-Western style. Like the heifer gold aureii noted above, both of these fine style portraits do differ somewhat from the CA / Young Bull denarius portrait. RIC notes, "Difference in the size of portrait between these two issues (RIC 541 and 542), together with the difference in reverse type, may indicate the work of different mints." Two Cypriot mints seem possible. before you bid, if you have a question about this item. to see ALL the items in this sale and how to pay if you win The eBay Way to Pay - Enjoy Full Purchase Protection!
