Ancient Roman Republic 111-110BC S. 176 Appius Claudius Pulcher, Titus Manlius Manlius, Quintus Urbinius Silver Denarius Extra Fine (EF-40) (Brushed)
This Ancient Roman Republic silver denarius minted in 111–110 BC is a notable coin issued jointly by three moneyers: Appius Claudius Pulcher, Titus Manlius Mancinus, and Quintus Urbinius. This collaboration is somewhat unusual, as Roman Republican coins were typically issued by individual moneyers, and could reflect a special commission or a significant political event requiring their combined authority. The imagery on this coin is rich with symbolism, as Roma personifies the city and its martial virtues, and the depiction of Victory driving a Triga (a three-horse chariot) is rare, and could symbolize a specific military triumph, or the unity of the three moneyers' families.
Obverse: The helmeted head of Roma facing right, wearing a winged helmet, surrounded by a griffin crest, with a control mark behind.
Reverse: Victory driving a triga galloping to the right, with the far horse looking back, legend below.
