| Lot description: Phrygia, Apameia Æ 17mm. Circa 2nd-1st century BC. Laureate male head (Augustus?) to right / AΠAMEΩN between two flutes; all within oak wreath. RPC I 3124 (tentatively listed as Augustus); SNG Copenhagen 206 (listed as Augustus); SNG von Aulock 3485 (same); Leu Web-12, 468 (hammer: 320 CHF). 4.92g, 17mm, 4h. Very Fine. Very Rare; only 15 examples listed on RPC online. Ex Roma Numismatics Ltd., E-Sale 95, 13 April 2022, lot 268. Although RPC includes this very rare type in its catalogue, it is noted that the identification of the portrait as Augustus is 'extremely uncertain' and that the date, being dependant on this identification, is also questionable. It could be that the coin is an earlier issue, as it is similar in arrangement to a type with the Pilei of the Dioskouroi flanking the ethnic in a wreath (cf. SNG von Aulock 3465 and SNG Copenhagen 160). Estimate: 40 GBP |  |

| Lot description: Septimius Severus, 193-211. Aureus (Gold, 21 mm, 7.29 g, 12 h), Rome, 210. SEVERVS PIVS AVG BRIT Laureate head of Septimius Severus to right. Rev. VIRTVS AVGVSTORVM Septimius Severus, Caracalla (in foreground to right), and Geta (in background to left) on horses galloping left, raising their right hands in salute. BMC p. 260, *. Calicó 2577 (same dies). Cohen -, cf. 770 (without BRIT). Hill 1142. RIC -, cf. 305 (without BRIT). Very rare. Struck from slightly worn dies and with very light scratches on the obverse, otherwise, good very fine. Ex Gorny & Mosch 240, 10 October 2016, 533. This beautiful dynastic aureus of Septimius Severus depicts the emperor with his two sons and co-rulers Caracalla and Geta riding on horseback to left on the reverse. The coin was issued in the year 210 when the three emperors were waging war against Caledonian tribes in Britannia. The legend propagates the 'bravery of the Augusti', implying the unity of the imperial family - a dream that would soon come to an end with the death of Septimius Severus on February 4, 211. His two sons, who couldn't stand each other, soon engaged in a bitter struggle for power, in which Geta came up short and was slain in December of the same year in the arms of their shared mother, Julia Domna. Estimate: 7500 CHF |  |
