Cassius Longinus was one of the principal conspirators against Julius Caesar. Following the assassination, he moved to the East, where he sought to amass an army. His prior reputation of military success against the Parthians while governing the province of Syria proved invaluable, and by 43 BC his army boasted nearly twelve legions. He was able to stave off Antony's general Dolabella, secured his base in Syria, and begin preparations for an invasion of Egypt. At the same time, Antony, Octavian, and Lepidus formed the triumvirate, and this posed too great a threat to ignore. Cassius halted his impending invasion of Egypt and moved West to meet up with Brutus' forces at Smyrna. The two regicides agreed to take joint action against the triumvirs, and began by attacking their allies in Asia. The following year the pair moved into Thrace, and chose a position outside Philippi to meet the approaching army of Antony and Octavian. Brutus moved against Octavian with great success, capturing the young Caesarian's camp, but Cassius' army was routed by Antony. Unaware of his partner's success, Cassius thought the entire cause was lost, and had his freedman Pindarus slay him. (CNG 225, 2010, lot 318 note).

Marcus Junius Brutus, known for his role in Julius Caesar's assassination, was a key figure in the late Roman Republic. He opposed Caesar's dictatorship, believing in the restoration of the Republic. Lentulus Spinther, a senator and supporter of Pompeus, was initially aligned with Caesar’s enemies but later sought reconciliation with Caesar after his defeat in the civil war. Both men embodied the complex allegiances of Rome’s turbulent political climate, though Brutus' legacy as a 'liberator' sharply contrasts with Spinther's pragmatic shifts in loyalty.

Lot # 497 - Cleopatra and Mark Antony. AR Denarius, 34 BC. Alexandria mint. Obv. ANTONI. ARMENIA DEVICTA. Bare head of Mark Antony right; behind, Armenian tiara. Rev. CLEOPATRAE REGINAE REGVM FILIORVM REGVM. Draped and diademed bust of Cleopatra right. Cr. 543/1; RRSC D318. AR. 3.9 g. 18 mm. RR. Banker's mark on obverse. Iridescent hues. VF/Good VF. Until the publication of R. Newman's work, 'A Dialogue of Power in the Coinage of Antony and Octavian' in *AJN 2*, there was general agreement on the date and mint of this coin. Sear (CRI) aligns with Newman, attributing the coin to Alexandria, minted for Antony’s Armenian triumph in the autumn of 34 BC, coinciding with the 'Donations of Alexandria.' Newman argues that the coin must have been minted in 34 BC, during Antony’s triumph in Alexandria, as it would otherwise lack context. He rejects the solid arguments of Grueber and Sydenham, who suggest a different scenario. They propose that the coin was minted in Ephesus in the winter of 33/2 BC by Antony to reward Cleopatra for her substantial contributions to his war efforts. Antony was in Ephesus in 33 BC when Cleopatra arrived with the Egyptian fleet, and both forces stayed there over winter, preparing for their conflict with Octavian. The coin’s inscription could be interpreted as '[coin] of Antony, with Armenia being Conquered, for Cleopatra, Queen of Kings and of her Sons, being Kings.' The Armenian crown behind Antony signifies his victorious Roman army, while the prow beneath Cleopatra, unique to this coin, represents the powerful Egyptian fleet. Together, they symbolize the combined forces arrayed against Octavian.

The obverse, showing Victory standing on a prow, is reminiscent of the type featured on the coins of Demetrius Poliorcetes, and reflects the manner of Octavian’s victory. The reverse displays Octavian as the victor, involved in the triumphal procession in Rome, which wended its way from the Forum to the Temple of Jupiter Optimus Maximus. This victory, however, was portrayed as being over the foreign queen Cleopatra, rather than Antony and those Romans who supported him. (Triton XI, 2008, 649 note).

Good VF/About EF. For a long time, this structure was mistakenly believed to be the temple dedicated to the deified Julius Caesar. However, modern research has now definitively identified it as the Curia Julia, the Senate house initiated by Julius Caesar shortly before his assassination in 44 BC. The construction was later completed and officially dedicated by his adopted son Octavian (the future Emperor Augustus) on August 28, 29 BC. This building served as a political center of the Roman Republic, reflecting Caesar's ambitious plans for reform and Octavian's eventual consolidation of power.

The comet immortalized by the magistrate M. Sanquinius on the reverse of this denarius, struck during the Secular Games of 17 BC, is the so called “Comet of Caesar” (Sidus Iulium or Caesaris astrum : numerical designation C/-43k1) widely considered the most famous of antiquity; this comet shone in the skies of Rome following the assassination of Julius Caesar and was interpreted by Romans as a sign of the deification of the dictator. Suetonius (Divus Julius, 88) writes : (Julius Caesar) 'periit sexto et quinquagensimo aetatis anno atque in deorum numerum relatus est, non ore modo decernentium sed et persuasione volgi. Siquidem ludis, quos primos consecratos ei heres Augustus edebat, stella crinita per septem continuos dies fulsit exoriens circa undecimam horam, creditumque est animam esse Caesaris in caelum recepti; et hac de causa simulacro eius in vertice additur stella'. (He died in the fifty-sixth year of his age, and was ranked amongst the Gods, not only by a formal decree, but in the belief of the populace. For during the first games which Augustus, his heir, consecrated to his memory, a comet blazed for seven days, rising always about eleventh hour (five pm o'clock); and it was credited to be the soul of Caesar, now received into heaven: for which reason he is, likewise, represented on his statue with a star on his brow) Many centuries later, Shakespeare may also have made oblique reference to it in the play Julius Caesar. However Shakespeare was mistaken about the time of its appareance or he took artistic license with history, as he had the comet appearing prior to Caesar's murder. In fact, in the second scene of Act II, Caesar's wife, Calpurnia, warns her husband of a portentous event which she interprets as an ill omen for him.

However, this particular example comes from a later reissue, struck two years after Agrippa’s death. The presence of P P (Pater Patriae) on the obverse indicates it was minted after Augustus received this title in 2 BC, confirming it as a subsequent emission of the well-known 'crocodile dupondius.'.

Spintriae were small, token-like objects used in the Roman Empire, typically made of bronze or brass, featuring erotic imagery on one side and a numeral (usually I to XVI) on the other. Their exact function remains debated; while some scholars suggest they served as brothel tokens or vouchers, others propose they were gaming pieces or objects of private amusement. Their standardized design and widespread discovery, particularly in Pompeii, indicate a structured purpose within Roman society, offering insight into the empire's attitudes toward sexuality and commerce.
