<Our item number 110397><B>Vespasian, A.D. 69-79. AE As, Rome mint, struck A.D. 71. H-unlisted. RIC-<B>501 var</B>.</B> Laureate head right of Vespasian. <I>Reverse:</I> Victory standing left, erecting trophy; seated to left, mourning captive. <B>Fine/Fine+.</B> <BR><BR>This seemingly unpublished reverse type appears to have the standard mourning personification of Judaea seated to left, instead of lying to left, as RIC 501 describes. It is also a question of whether the figure is male or female. From the lack of drapery, the posture and head detail, this seems to be a male figure, rather than the normal draped female personification. <BR>Estimated Value &#36;800-1,200. <BR><BR>Our item number 110397<BR><IMAGES><P ALIGN="CENTER"><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/41jpegs/110397.jpg"> <BR><IMG SRC="http://www.goldbergcoins.net/liveauction/41jpegs/110397N2.jpg"> </P></IMAGES>
