Lot 3064 - denarii collection - roman republic - Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc. Pre-Long Beach Auction #80 L. Cornelius Lentulus and C. Claudius Marcellus. Silver Denarius (4.00 g), 49 BC. Military mint traveling in the East. Triskeles, with winged head of Medusa facing at center and ear of grain between each leg. Reverse [L]E(NT) (MAR) COS, Jupiter standing facing, head right, holding thunderbolt and eagle; in right field, harpa. Crawford 445/1a; HCRI 4; Sydenham 1029a; Cornelia 64. Rare. Well struck with lustrous surfaces and delicately toned. Superb Extremely Fine. Struck under the exiled consuls, Lentulus and Marcellus, the types reference both family history and Roman power. The issue has traditionally been assigned to a mint operating in Sicily, but the hurried nature of the Pompeian withdrawal from Brundisium to Greece suggests it was struck somewhere in the East. The obverse recalls that it was M. Claudius Marcellus, the ancestor of the current consul, who conquered Syracuse in 211 BC. The reverse depicts Jupiter, the chief deity of the Roman pantheon and thus a symbol of unity, and may copy the famous statue of Zeus Eleutherius by Myron. Jupiter appears on all the joint issues of the Lentulus and Marcellus. Estimated Value $2,500 - 3,000. Ex Elsen 97 (13 September 2008), 201; Crédit Suisse 3 (19 April 1985), 419.

The same control mark that is found on the obverse invariably appears on the reverse also, and no pair of controls has more than one pair of dies. Estimated Value $800 - 900.

Reverse Jupiter standing facing, head right, before garlanded altar, holding thunderbolt and eagle; in left field, star above Q. Crawford 445/2; HCRI 5; Sydenham 1030; Cornelia 65. Lustrous with a light iridescent tone. Superb Extremely Fine. The questor who was involved in producing this coin chose to remain anonymous, omitting his name from the type. According to a letter Cicero wrote to his friend L. Munatius Plancus, the reason was the close friendship of the questor with Caesar. Cicero identifies the man as T. Antistius (Cicero, Ad familiares XIII.29), who after Pharsalus retired to Bithynia in shame. Caesar subsequently visited him there and spoke kindly to him, urging him to return to Rome. Antistius never made it, though, as he died in Corcyra on the return journey. Estimated Value $1,500 - 2,000. Ex Roma II (2 October 2011), 496. Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc.

Lustrous and lightly toned. Nearly Mint State. The moneyer is perhaps the brother of the moneyer M. Fonteius (see Crawford 347) and not inconceivably the tribune featured on the reverse of Crawford 429/1 (see the coin of P. Fonteius P.f. Capito below). The reverse recalls that the god Jupiter was suckled by the she-goat Amaltheia on Mt. Ida during his infancy, and depicts a statue that was within the Temple of Vejovis in Rome.

Lot 3059 - denarii collection - roman republic - Ira & Larry Goldberg Coins & Collectibles, Inc. Pre-Long Beach Auction #80 P. Fonteius P. f. Capito. Silver Denarius (3.96 g), 55 BC. Rome. P FONTEIUS P F CAPITO III VIR, helmeted and draped bust of Mars right, trophy over shoulder. Reverse (MN) FO(NT) TR MIL, soldier on horseback rearing right, thrusting his spear at a Gallic enemy who is about to slay an unarmed person; to lower right, helmet and shield. Crawford 429/1; Sydenham 900; Fonteia 17. Rare. An incredible example, boldly struck and well centered. Attractively toned with light iridescense on both sides. Superb Extremely Fine. The reverse commemorates a valorous deed of one Manius Fonteius, but the precise circumstances are lost to us. Both Crawford and Harl suggest he may have served under another ancestor, Marcus Fonteius, who was governor of Gallia Narbonesis from 76-73 BC. Estimated Value $2,500 - 3,000.
