Lot description:


CILICIA. Uncertain colonia. Augustus, BC 27 - 14 AD. (Bronze, 19 mm, 3.91 g, 7 h), Bare head (Octavian?) to right. Rev. Prow to right, below Q. RPC I 5411. FITA p. 13. Struck on a broad flan. Some cleaning marks and obverse slightly off center, otherwise, good very fine.


Although previously attributed to a uncertain Macedonian mint due to the presence of Q, those coins don't appear in the Macedonian region and thus the editors of RPC proposed a Cilician or Syrian origin for them based solely in finding data.

Starting Price: 75 CHF
