Lot # 10301 - ROMAN. Philip II. As Caesar, A.D. 244-247. Bronze Sestertius (23.44g). Rome mint, 3rd officina. 2nd emission, A.D. 245. M IVL PHILIPPVS CAES, bareheaded and draped bust right / PRINCIPI IVVENT, S C across field, Philip II, in military dress, standing right, holding transverse spear in right hand and globe in left. RIC IV 255; Banti 10. An amazing sestertius, with an outstanding portrait, lovely deep green patina, and very well centred strike. One of the finest known, if not the finest. Numbered among the ill-fated boy-emperors of the turbulent 3rd century, Philip II was scarcely seven years old when his father raised him to the rank of Caesar in early 244. His brief formative years unfolded against a backdrop of instability, for Philip I had himself seized the throne in a coup in Asia Minor and then faced constant danger on the Danubian frontier, where he struggled to contain Rome's enemies. Philip II bore the title of Caesar for just over three years, during which a distinguished coinage was issued in his name, most notably a series of attractive silver double denarii and brass sestertii that projected an image of dynastic continuity amid mounting crisis.

Lot # 10302 - ROMAN. Philip II. As Caesar, A.D. 244-247. Orichalcum Sestertius (18.49g). Rome mint. Struck A.D. 244-246. M IVL PHILIPPVS CAES, bareheaded and draped bust of Philip II right / PRINCIPI IVVENTVTIS, S C across field, Philip II as Princeps Iuventutis, in military dress standing left, holding standard in his outstretched right hand and reversed spear in his left. Cohen 62; RIC 258. A very nice example, well centred and sharply struck, with unusually well-preserved detail and an incredible green patina. EF. Very little is recorded about Philip II, but the few facts we have are striking. In the summer of A.D. 244, when he was only about six, his father Philip I the Arab made him Caesar and Princeps Iuventutis as he took the throne. In the following year he held the consulship, and soon after he was raised to Augustus, sharing the imperial title with his father. It did not last; Philip I fell at the Battle of Verona, and the boy emperor was killed in Rome by the Praetorian Guard. The portrait on this coin still shows the softness of his youth, a reminder of just how young he was when it was struck.

Lot # 10304 - ROMAN. Divus Antoninus Pius. Commemorative issue struck under Trajan Decius, A.D. 250-251. Silver Antoninianus (3.88g). Rome mint. DIVO PIO, radiate head right / CONSECRATIO, lighted altar. RIC IV (Trajan Decius) 90; RSC 1189. Extremely Fine. A strong, well-preserved example of Decius' evocative Divi commemoratives. This antoninianus belongs to the remarkable series in which Decius, ruling in the turbulence of the mid 3rd century, sought to strengthen his legitimacy by honouring select earlier emperors as deified models of Roman authority, a carefully chosen roll call that even included unexpected figures such as Commodus and Severus Alexander.Estimate: AUD 500

RIC IV.III 109. EF. This is an exceptional example for the type, with a broad, almost medallic flan that allows the entire design to be fully displayed, all framed by an attractive, glossy deep forest-green patina. The piece is arguably finer than nearly all examples recorded in recent sales and across CoinArchives, with unusually sharp detail and great eye appeal. While the type itself is not especially rare, in this extraordinary state of preservation it is genuinely very rare and an especially impressive specimen.

Radiate and cuirassed bust right / LEG I ADI VI P VI F, capricorn right. RIC V 315; MIR 36, 982n; Toffanin 74/5; RSC 447. Toned. aVF. Legio I Adiutrix (Helpers) was raised in A.D. 68, with recruitment probably begun under Nero and completed by Galba, drawing heavily on sailors and marines from the Misenum fleet. It stayed in Italy and fought for Otho on the losing side during the civil war of A.D. 68-69, then was sent to Germany around A.D. 70 and based at Mainz, sharing the fortress in a double-billet with Legio XIV Gemina. The legion saw extensive service under Domitian, Nerva and Trajan, and in A.D. 118 Hadrian transferred it to Brigetio, modern Hungary, which became its long-term base. In the turbulent 3rd century, I Adiutrix was heavily engaged on the exposed Danube frontier, facing both barbarian incursions and the forces of rival Roman usurpers. The Notitia Dignitatum records its continued presence at Brigetio into the 5th century A.D. Its symbol was Capricorn, the birth sign of Galba. Acquired from Pegasi Numismatics.Estimate: AUD 250

Toned, with some porosity. aVF. Legio V Macedonica ranks among the longest-lived of all Roman legions, its story running from the final years of the Republic into the early Byzantine period. It was probably raised around 43 BC as one of the last formations loyal to the Republic, before passing into Octavian's control after the Battle of Mutina. From the 30s BC until A.D. 6, the legion served in Macedonia, and it was from this posting that it took the cognomen Macedonica. It later saw service in Moesia, Cappadocia, Armenia and Judaea, before being established at the fortress of Potaissa in Dacia, modern Romania, in the A.D. 160s, remaining there for well over a century. Vexillations of V Macedonica fought in many campaigns on multiple fronts. When Aurelian evacuated Dacia in A.D. 271, the legion returned to Moesia, though at least one detachment was dispatched to Memphis in Egypt and stayed there down to the Islamic invasion in the later 7th century A.D. The legion's symbols were the bull and the eagle, shown on the reverse here beside Victory.Estimate: AUD 250

Radiate and cuirassed bust right / LEG VII CL VI P VI F, bull walking right. RIC V 348; MIR 36, 1006r; Toffanin 101/4; RSC 511. Toned. VF. Legio VII Claudia was founded by Julius Caesar at the outset of his Gallic campaign, circa 58 BC, and remained loyal to him through the hard fighting in Gaul and the civil wars that followed. Its first cognomen, Paterna, is linked to Caesar's title of Pater Patriae (father of the fatherland). Caesar later disbanded the Seventh, circa 45 BC, and settled its veterans near Capua, but after the Ides of March in 44 BC his heir Octavian quickly recalled the veterans and re-formed Legio VII to support his rise to supreme power. Its early imperial postings are not entirely clear, though it likely took part in Augustus' Thracian campaigns and helped secure the Dalmatian frontier after the Varian disaster of A.D. 9. Under Claudius, the legion refused to support a revolt by the governor of Dalmatia and was rewarded with the title Claudia Pia Fidelis (loyal and dutiful Claudian), which it kept thereafter. It eventually became permanently based at Viminacium in Moesia Superior (modern Kostolac, Serbia) and is still recorded there into the late 4th century A.D. Like many legions founded by Caesar, its symbol was his natal sign, the bull. Acquired from Harlan J. Berk Ltd., 1977.Estimate: AUD 250

GALLIENVS AVG, radiate and cuirassed bust right / LEG XXX VLP VII P VII [F], Neptune standing right, holding trident and dolphin. RIC V 369; MIR 36, 1025r; Toffanin 122/3; RSC 555; Cunetio 1487. Toned, with traces of silvering. aVF. Rare. Legio XXX Ulpia Victrix was raised by Emperor Trajan, circa A.D. 101, as part of the preparations for the Dacian Wars, and it took the emperor's family name, Ulpia. Its conduct in those campaigns later earned the extra title Victrix, meaning Victorious. Following Trajan's eastern operations of A.D. 116-117, the legion is recorded in Pannonia under the command of Quintus Marcius Turbo, a trusted associate and close friend of the future emperor Hadrian. Early in Hadrian's reign it was transferred to Vetera, modern Xanten, in Lower Germany, where it remained based for roughly the next two centuries. There, XXX Ulpia often worked alongside its sister legion, I Minervia, building and maintaining fortifications and civic works along the Rhine frontier, and the resulting inscriptions have left modern scholars an unusually rich trail to follow. Like several other legions named in the coinage of Gallienus, XXX Ulpia is also associated with support for the breakaway Gallo-Roman Empire of Postumus, circa A.D. 260-273, though it is likely that a substantial vexillation stayed loyal to the central government and served within Gallienus' reserve forces at Milan. The final notice of the legion suggests a detachment campaigning in the east against the Persians during the siege of Amida, around A.D. 360, after which the Thirtieth disappears from the historical record. Its principal symbols were Capricorn and Neptune. Acquired from CNG Electronic Auction 461, lot 447 (12 Feb 2020), realised US$250.Estimate: AUD 300

It compares with Triton XXIX, lot 824 (13 Jan 2026), hammered USD 2,750, and Triton XXIX, lot 838 (13 Jan 2026), hammered USD 3,000; in our view, it even appears finer than the best recorded example at the time, Paul-Francis Jacquier Auction 42, lot 702 (16 Sep 2016), hammered EUR 9,500. This antoninianus of Laelianus marks a lightning revolt on the Rhine in A.D. 269. He challenged Postumus and struck coins in the Rhine region, but his rule lasted only weeks before he was killed by his own troops.Estimate: AUD 5000

RIC V.2 114 (Colonia Agrippinensis); Mairat, 2014 (unpublished PhD thesis), 595. Extremely Fine for this very rare bust depiction and undoubtedly one of the finest known examples. Victorinus was a Roman emperor who ruled during the tumultuous period of the Gallic Empire (A.D. 268-271). He was a military leader who rose to power amid the empire's fracturing, declaring himself emperor in A.D. 269. His reign, though brief, was marked by efforts to stabilise the western provinces of the empire, especially through military campaigns. Victorinus is also known for his coinage, which played a significant role in maintaining the economy of the Gallic Empire. His coins, often featuring his likeness and various deities, are valued by collectors for their historical significance and rarity. They reflect the challenging times of his reign, showcasing the emperor's attempts to project authority and maintain unity in a divided empire. From the inventory of I.S.

RIC V 2; Pink VI/2, p. 49; Venera 4398. Attractively toned, with silvering. EF. A truly amazing coin, without doubt one of the finest known for the type. Sharply struck, beautifully centred and blessed with exceptional eye appeal, it is in our view clearly much finer than the recent example sold in Leu Auction 26, lot 4839 (8 July 2023), hammered USD 6,600, as well as superior to the specimen offered in Triton XXVI, lot 828 (10 January 2023), hammered USD 4,750. Taking these important benchmarks into account, the present coin would undoubtedly rank among the very finest known examples of the type. Marcus Aurelius Sabinus Iulianus first appears in history as a provincial administrator, serving as corrector in northern Italy under the emperor Carus. In the turmoil that followed Carus' death, while Carinus and the rising star Diocletian struggled for control of the empire, Julianus seized his moment. Around A.D. 284 he briefly claimed imperial authority in Pannonia and struck coins from the important mint at Siscia, attempting to give his revolt a veneer of legitimacy. His bid for power was short-lived: Carinus marched out from his western base, probably in Britain, and moved swiftly to crush the rebellion, defeating and killing Julianus near Verona early in A.D. 285.

Historical evidence for the Egyptian revolt of the mid 290s is scarce and often contradictory. Most literary sources name Aurelius Achilleus as the leader of the uprising, yet the surviving papyri and, above all, the coinage point instead to an otherwise obscure L. Domitius Domitianus as the principal usurper. The revolt appears to have begun in Thebes, then spread rapidly through Egypt, with the rebels seizing control of Lower Egypt and Alexandria. From Alexandria, Domitius Domitianus issued a rare series of imperial aurei, folles and a small number of provincial issues in his own name, asserting full imperial authority in open defiance of the Tetrarchy. The precise chronology remains debated. Many scholars place the rising around A.D. 297, with Diocletian personally leading the campaign to recover Egypt and finally suppressing the revolt in early 298, although some prefer a slightly earlier start around 295. It is possible that Domitius Domitianus died late in 297 and was briefly succeeded by Aurelius Achilleus, whose name is preserved in the literary tradition as the usurper slain by Diocletian after the fall of Alexandria. Whatever the exact sequence, the episode was short but serious, and the coinage of Domitius Domitianus stands as a rare and tangible record of this dramatic challenge to imperial authority in Egypt.

Marks: S F in left field, KA in right field, PTR in exergue. RIC VI Cyzicus 678. Attractive golden toning over the partial silvering, with brown and green patina. gVF. Very rare. Struck at Cyzicus, but imitating the Trier mint mark. This issue is routinely attributed to Trier (Treveri) because it carries PTR, yet portrait style and hoard evidence indicate that it was actually struck at Cyzicus. It was produced by two officinae marked with Greek letters, and the decisive feature is the K with the officina letter in the field between the figures, which serves as the true Cyzicus mint signature rather than PTR. This point is reinforced by related Cyzicus issues, RIC 22-23, struck by the same officinae without any PTR. The most plausible explanation is that early Trier examples were circulated as prototypes for other mints to copy, and at Cyzicus the engravers reproduced the model too literally, retaining PTR while also adding their own field mark and creating an apparent double mint mark. The mistake was soon recognised, and later dies were cut showing only the Cyzicus mint mark in its proper position.Estimate: AUD 300
