bill's Ursone AS

Bronze As of Ursone ca. 50 B.C., Spain. Not the best preserved example, but rare and one of my favorite bears on early coinage

ccg's Aurelian AE Antoninianus c.270-275

ORIENS AVG
Sol with two captives
Sol (the Sun God) was one of the more popular pagan gods in the 3rd century, and is featured on a number of pieces until about 310 AD. His birthday (December 25) was later adopted by Christians to also be the birthday of Jesus (Christmas).

bill's Castulo Semis

Celt-Iberian Castulo Bull. 1st Century B.C. Semis. Exceptionally well preserved.
