Good VF. The reverse depicts the legendary foundation of Lanuvium. As Aeneas and his Trojan followers were engaged in constructing the city, they saw a blaze in a nearby wood. The fire was kindled by a she-wolf feeding branches onto a brazier, while an eagle fanned the flames with its wings. According to the tradition, a fox (not shown here) attempted in vain to put out the fire by dipping its tail into a stream, but was driven away by the wolf and the eagle. From this, Aeneas understood that the new settlement would gain renown, though it would face the envy of its neighbours—yet ultimately it would triumph.

The Rostra is the name of the great speaker's platform in the Forum, from which speakers addressed crowds, and from this platform many of the great and famous speeches in Roman history were delivered. Initially, it was constructed as a flat-topped platform (suggestus) forming part of the large, round Comitium (an area in front of the Curia where speakers would address the whoever was assembled). Typically, a speaker's platform is called a tribunal, but after Duilius won Rome's first major naval victory against Antium in 338 BCE, six bronze prows of enemy ships were attached to the front of the speaker's platform as trophies; the Latin for prows is rostra, and the name became used for the entire structure. In 260 BCE, C. Duilius Nepos defeated the Carthagians at Mylae, and replaced or supplemented the original prows with new ones from ships captured in that battle. Eventually, decorative prows that were not from actual ships were specially constructed for the platform itself.

The Pharos of Messana surmounted by figure of Neptune; before, galley with Aquila on prow and sceptre tied with fillet on stern. Rev. PRAEF. CLAS.ET.ORAE.MARIT.EX.S.C.

This AR Denarius, minted during 37-36 BC under Sextus Pompeius, offers a captivating narrative deeply intertwined with the historical and mythological fabric of ancient Sicily. On the obverse, the Pharos of Messana dominates, a testament to the island's pivotal maritime position. This iconic lighthouse, surmounted by Neptune, underscores Messana's role as a beacon for sailors navigating the Mediterranean's perilous waters, while also symbolizing prosperity and guidance. Conversely, the reverse presents the formidable figure of Scylla, a mythical sea monster deeply ingrained in Sicilian lore. With a rudder firmly grasped in both hands, Scylla serves as a poignant reminder of the maritime hazards faced by ancient seafarers, embodying the dangers lurking in Sicily's coastal waters.
