This coin was struck on one of the two dates, 31 and 33 AD, thought to be the date of Christ's crucifixion. VF.

A reverse die with the field marks similarly re-engraved, proving that the issue with marks ΣI above encircled N followed that with just ΣI, was first noticed by Davesne and Le Rider, Le trésor de Meydancikkale, Paris 1989, p. 268. At least three reverse dies underwent this alteration: (a) Meydancikkale 4664-5; (b) our coin and Freeman & Sear, MBS 15, 27 June 2008, lot 222; (c) Argenor 5, 29 April 2002, lot 126. Two further specimens, BM 35 and in trade (Rollin & Feuardent), were listed but not illustrated by Svoronos 718, who wrongly interpreted the recut field marks as deriving from double-striking. VF.

Haeberlin 1119 = Banti 39 (same dies). Control mark variant of Crawford 329/1a, Sydenham 604, and RSC Cornelia 25. Possibly only the second recorded specimen of this denarius with a different control mark on the reverse than on the obverse. According to Crawford, "the control-mark on the reverse is invariably the same as on the obverse"; he apparently overlooked the Haeberlin coin contradicting this rule, which is from the same dies as ours. Banti 44/1 shows a coin with mark dot above Y on both obverse and reverse, as expected; this coin may be, but is not certainly, from the same reverse die as ours. Toned aEF.

Rx: NERONI CLAVD DIVI F CAES AVG GERM IMP TR P around oak wreath enclosing EX S C. BM 3. Paris 8. Cohen 7 (30 Fr.). RIC 2 (R2). Ex Philip T. Ashton Collection. Purchased from Spartan Numismatics, September 2006. Agrippina's rapid loss of influence after successfully engineering Claudius' death and Nero's accession to the throne, culminating in her expulsion from the palace by Nero, is reflected in the gold and silver coinage of Nero's first regnal year. Agrippina is prominent in Nero's first coin type as emperor, shown by our denarius: her titles occupy the obverse, relegating Nero's titles to the reverse, and her portrait faces Nero's, though in the subordinate right-hand position. In the second type, the titles changed places, Nero's now occupying the obverse, and the portraits became jugate, with Agrippina behind Nero. Thereafter, Agrippina was entirely excluded from the coinage. Excellent vis-á-vis portraits of Nero and his mother. Planchet break on Agrippina's head. aEF.

Ex Naville II, 12-14 June 1922, Vautier - Collignon, lot 394. Kraay 73, Officina B, obverse die A1, reverse die P105, cited only our single coin for this die combination, though Kraay mistakenly made one of its auction appearances into a different, second, specimen; Kraay's specimens a and b are actually one and the same coin. The reverse type is interesting, conveying the idea that it was within Victory's power to bestow control over Rome (the Palladium); such a type occurred only on sestertii of the two successive emperors Nero and Galba, under Nero on a very rare coin of late in his reign showing Victory advancing right (BMC pl. 48.1), then under Galba on scarce sestertii showing her advancing either left or right, found by Kraay in a total of nineteen reverse dies (p. 56). Extremely sharp and complete, showing even the details of the leaves in Galba's wreath which are usually lost to flat striking or wear. Struck on an exceptionally broad flan and perfectly centered; probably one of the finest Galba sestertii in existence. Magnificent EF.

Ryan Coll., Part 5, lot 2351 Ex Naville XI, 18-20 June 1925, H.C. Levis Coll., lot 445. Colin Kraay in his unpublished die catalogue of Vespasian's sestertii of 70-71 AD, no. 97, cited for this die combination our coin only, from the Ryan and Levis collections. This coin is part of Vespasian's earliest sestertius issue of 71 AD, with CAESAR VESPASIANVS...COS III in the obverse legend, which is characterized by a large and interesting variety of imperial portraits, bust types, and reverse types, for example the unusual laureate, draped bust on our coin, rather than the normal head laureate right. This draped bust type may be seen from the back as on our coin, or seen from the side as on BMC pl. 34.3, a distinction that is overlooked in the new RIC. Struck on a broad flan, this small flawless portrait of Vespasian is surrounded by an extremely long legend. The quality of this coin can be seen by the two exceptional collectors who owned it. Choice EF.
