C. Hosidius C.f. Geta. 64 BC. AR Denarius (17.5mm, 3.91 g, 3h). Rome mint. Diademed and draped bust of Diana right, bow and quiver over shoulder / Calydonian boar standing right, harried by hound to left. Crawford 407/2 note; Sydenham 903a; Hosidia 1a; RBW 1457. Although Crawford lumps the "with spear" and "missing spear" into the same listing, the missing spear variety is much rarer and was clearly an engraver's omission by mistake. Delamination error on obverse, minor scuff on reverse, hairlines. EF. |
