Lot 485
Anonymous Cast Æ Aes Formatum. Rome or uncertain Italian mint, circa 500-300 BC. Scallop shell / Blank. Cf. ICC pl. 90, 4.-5 120.58g, 42mm. Good Very Fine. Rare, and extremely heavy for the type. From a private Swiss collection, outside of Italy prior to January 2011. Even before Rome developed a uniform coinage system in the early third century BC it had already codified the rates of exchange for oxen and sheep in bronze, which was traded by weight. The later usage of the scallop shell on the sextantal coinage of Rome suggests this 'aes formatum' type is possibly Roman in origin.
Lot 677
Marcus Aurelius Fourrée Denarius. Uncertain mint, after AD 165. ANTONINVS AVG ARMENIACVS, laureate head right / P M TR P XIX IMP II COS III, Felicitas standing left, holding caduceus and cornucopiae; [globe at her feet]. Cf. RIC 132; cf. RSC 476. 3.02g, 18mm, 12h. Near Extremely Fine. Areas of exposed bronze core.
Lot 705
Pertinax Fourrée Mule Denarius. Uncertain mint, after AD 192. IMP CAES P HELV PERTIN AVG, laureate head right / SECVR ORB P M TR P XIIII COS VII, Securitas seated left on throne, holding globe in right hand; sphinx seated left behind her, on which she rests left elbow. Unpublished; for obv. type, cf. RIC 1-13; for rev. type, cf. RIC 179 & 190. 2.73g, 20mm, 6h. Near Very Fine. Areas of exposed bronze core. An interesting and unpublished fourrée combining an obverse of Pertinax with a reverse based on a late type of Commodus. Carrying the earliest obverse of Pertinax and a reverse type dating to the later years of Commodus' reign (but with a blundered legend), this mule denarius is a possibly unique pairing of obverse and reverse types, Securitas being noticeably absent from the official coinage of Pertinax. Interestingly, though omitted from the descriptions in RIC and only mentioned in passing in BMCRE (Commodus 630, note), the sphinx seated behind the figure of Securitas on the reverse of the present piece (which can only be seen on some of the extant denarii of Commodus) can here be clearly distinguished, a particularly specific detail to be carried across from the copied original when the legends were rendered incorrectly.
