The reverse type is identified as an adaptation of the denarius of Julius Caesar with the reverse of elephant trampling a serpent. Scheers describes this reverse as an elephant with indeterminate design above. Might we have an interesting propaganda point here ? Caesar's design symbolizes Rome (the elephant) trampling her enemies (the serpent). Caesar'sfoes, the Remi, have a design with the serpent in a superior position above the elephant.

Following the battle of the Milvian Bridge, Constantine struck two fractional issues at the mint of Rome, one markedXII (lot 833) and the other marked XVI (lot 832). The meaning of these marks on the reverses of these rare fractional issues has caused much discussion and debate. In his article, "An Issue of Follis Fractions with Denominational Marks by Constantine I al Rome, " DavidG. Wigg concludes that at the lime of issue, the follis was valued at 25 denarii, and that these marks are marks of value, a rare occurrence during the Constantinian time period.

($ 1000) The Politikon coinage, issued both anonymously and in the name of Byzantine emperors, has never been examined fully. It was undoubtedly connected to the increasing western presence in Constantinople. By the 14th century the city heldseveral foreign enclaves, especially of Venice and Genoa, which in many ways operated as independent territories of their homeland. Perhaps one or more of these communities took it upon themselves to issue a special currency for their own use, the prèsence or absence of an imperial type depending on the fluctuating relationship with the imperial throne.

1717. ROMAN. Circa late 2nd Century AD. R Medallion 50mm (131.18 gm). Bare-headed draped bust of a young man righL Cast medallion, 8mm thick, high rounded border, with added engraved details, such as the close-cropped cudy hair and the eye The drapery on the shoulder is depicted as a blank wedge shape, and may never have beenfinishedoff. The reverse is blank, with only a centering point Similarities of portraiture can be seen in othermedaDions of the last quarter of the 2nd century AD, with perhaps the closest resemblance being medallions of Commodus as Caesar under Marcus Aurelius. See J.M.C. Toynbee, Roman Medallions, ρΙ.ΧΧΠ, 3. Our piece, if indeed it does depict Commodus, would be somewhat later, circa 177-180 AD, when he was co-emperor with his father. At this time Commodus was accompanying his father in the wars against the Germanic tribes threatening the Empire. It has been theorized that certain medallions bearing imperial portraits were used in the legionary standards that accompanied the emperor on his campaigns. If it is intended as an imperial portrait, this massive piece would be suitable for such a use. Ironically, Commodus would immediately abandon all military operations upon the death of Aurelius, returning quickly to Rome and luxury. Minor wear at the high points, red-brown and green patina. Possibly a very important imperial artifact. ($3000)

Similar glass appliques, or prurits, were usedonEuropeanglasswearoftheMedieval period. The designs ofthe eastern pieces show the converging influences ofthe region, from the classical west, Persia and the east, and Turkish peoples. This seated figure is clearly related to the sealedfigures seen on Turkoman coins. These pieces are sometimes called weights or tokens, but they are clearly decorative devices from glass vessals. Attractive and intriguing small artifacts.

Female riding tiger sidesaddle to left, with cloak blowing out behind her, and wearing crown with pendilia; star in field, border of spaced pellets. Uniface. VF, gray patina. ($150) An enigmatic, difficult to classify object. Sayles and Spengler identify the "lionrider" on Turkoman bronze coins as an adaptation of the classical motif of Dionysos riding a panther. They also assert that stars placed in the fields of these coins convey an additional astronomical significance .In this case ,the rider appears to be female (a maenad?) and rides a striped tiger. Her headpiece is reminiscent of the crowns worn by Byzantine empresses. The piece is flat and in low relief, and protrusions at top and bottom suggest it may have been part of a larger object. Unusual.
