Elkins, The Flavian Colosseum Sestertii, Numismatic Chronicle 166, 2006, p. 219, 9, pl. 32 (our dies). Extensive light pitting, brown patination. About Fine/VG Ex Dutch Royal Collection, deaccessioned in J. Schulman 254, November 1971, part of lot 3409. This specimen listed in Elkin`s Appendix to his die catalogue of Colosseum sestertii, Numismatic Chronicle 169, 2009, p. 203, 9h To prove the popular nature of Vepasian`s rule, the Colosseum was built on the site that had recently been occupied by Nero`s Golden Palace. The reverse type of Titus seated as master of the world (his curule chair set on globe), bringing peace (olive branch) by means of victory over enemies (captured arms), fits well with the recently discovered dedicatory inscription of the Colosseum, stating that the emperors constructed it "from the proceeds of booty" (ex manubis), doubtless chiefly the booty of the Jewish War. This Colosseum type was struck mainly for the living Titus, but after Titus` death Domitian continued it for Divus Titus, taking over one of the Colosseum obverse dies of Titus and cutting two new reverse dies with Titus` titles as Divus. Our coin belongs to this rarer second issue for Divus Titus rather than Titus alive

Miller Collection, acquired from Berk 160, 11 June 2008, lot 408 The two trophies probably represent Trajan`s twelfth and thirteenth imperatorial acclamations which he won during his Parthian campaign of 115-6 AD, the latter for his capture of the Parthian capital Ctesiphon (Strack, p. 226), a victory which earned him the title Parthicus that is recorded in the obverse legend
Elagabalus. 218-222 AD. Denarius, 2.89g (6h). Rome, 220-1 AD. Obv: IMP ANTONINVS PIVS AVG Bust laureate, draped right. Rx: LIBERTAS AVG Libertas standing left holding cap and scepter, star combined with globe in field right. BM 220. Cohen 92. RIC 107. Exceptional quality. Mint State The star in field on Elagabalus` coins was certainly intended to represent the sun, specifically the emperor`s sun god. The addition of a globe to the star on this and some other coins was probably meant to indicate this fact: this heavenly body had perceptible breadth and was not a mere point of light like an ordinary star
