Extremely rare. A very interesting and historically important issue perfectly struck and centred on a very broad flan. Good extremely fine In AD 194, Septimius Severus defeated Pescennius Niger, his Syrian rival for the imperial purple. Not being a particularly forgiving sort, in the next year Severus followed up this victory with a punitive campaign against the local kings of Osrhoene and Adiabene who had either openly supported Niger or had taken advantage of the upheaval in Syria for their own benefit. The campaign was a resounding success. Osrhoene was conquered and much of the kingdom was converted into a Roman province although its former king, Abgar, was permitted to retain possession of Edessa and its surrounding territory. Adiabene was also conquered, but seems to have been left largely in the hands of its king who is possibly to be identified with the Narseh mentioned in the Chronicle of Arbela. These victories prompted Severus to assume the honorific titles of Parthicus Arabicus and Parthicus Adiabenicus. While Parthicus Adiabenicus obviously refers to the conquest of the Parthian vassal kingdom of Adiabene, Parthicus Arabicus refers to the annexation of Osrhoene. The latter had a largely Aramean population that was ruled by the Arab Abgarid dynasty, hence the use of Arabicus. Severus' titles appear not only on the coinage struck in the aftermath of this early eastern campaign, but also on the Arch of Septimius Severus in Rome that was completed in 203. The present aureus celebrates Severus' campaigns against Osrhoene and Adiabene through its trophy type and explanatory reverse legend. It is unclear whether it might have been struck from plunder carried back to Rome by the victorious Roman army Estimate: 25000 CHF

ILLUSTRAZIONE: Il Gran Cammeo di Francia (Grand Camée de France) è un magnifico cammeo lavorato a cinque strati di onice, databile al 23 d.C. circa e conservato al Cabinet des médailles di Parigi. Si tratta del più grande cammeo antico pervenutoci, che misura 31×26,5 cm. Il fregio è diviso in tre registri. Nel registro inferiore si trovano barbari prigionieri. In quello centrale si vedono i personaggi all'epoca viventi della dinastia giulio-claudia: Tiberio imperatore, al centro, con in mano lo scettro e il lituo, con la fianco la madre Livia e la moglie Giulia Livia, figlia di Druso minore. La composizione ricorda la Triade capitolina con Giove al centro tra Giunone e Minerva. Di fronte a lui vi è Nerone Cesare, figlio maggiore di Germanico. Dietro vi è Claudia Livilla, raffigurata alle spalle di Nerone. Accanto a Livilla, vestito con una uniforme militare, vi è un giovanissimo Gaio Cesare, il futuro imperatore Caligola. Ai piedi del trono imperiale un barbaro seduto rappresenterebbe probabilmente la Partia nemica acerrima dell'impero. Alle spalle di Tiberio e Livia troviamo Druso Cesare secondogenito di Germanico e la madre Agrippina maggiore che insieme al figlio volge lo sguardo in direzione dell'apoteosi di Germanico verso l'avo Augusto. Nel registro superiore, riservato alle divinità, si vedono membri scomparsi della gens Giulia, quali Augusto al centro (vestito da pontifex maximus), sorretto da una figura che dovrebbe essere Iulo, figlio di Enea e nipote di Venere che secondo la leggenda sarebbe capostipite della gens Giulia; alle sue spalle troviamo Druso minore, figlio di Tiberio, morto nel 23, di fronte a lui in groppa a Pegaso tirato da un Amorino, vi è Germanico, figlio adottivo ed erede di Tiberio morto in Siria nel 19. Il senso generale della scena è marcare la continuità tra Augusto e i successivi membri della dinastia giulio-claudia. Paris, Department of Coins, Medals and Antiquities

Ex David Simpson Collection (Triton V, 15 January 2002), lot 1755; Classical Numismatic Group, Auction XXIV (9 December 1992), lot 497 This coin displays the famous mythological scene known as "The Judgement of Paris" - a competition between three formidable goddesses: Hera the Queen of the Gods, Athena the goddess of War, and Aphrodite the goddess of Love. To settle this competition Paris was chosen to pick the fairest of them all. Each of the goddesses tried to bribe Paris while he was "inspecting" them. Hera vowed him power. Athena offered him wisdom and military prowess. And finally, Aphrodite promised him Helen, the world's most beautiful woman, an offer he couldn't turn down. Aphrodite was awarded the winning trophy, the golden apple, which became an attribute forever connected to the goddess. The result of this competition would kick off the events that led to the Trajan war and the eventual fall of Troy. Estimate: 1000-1500 USD
