      42 BC – Lepidus and Octavian – AR Denarius 3.73g – NGC Very Fine 4/5 – 2/5 (Scratches)

      A Wily and wealthy nobleman, Marcus Aemilius Lepidus parlayed his position as Julius Caesar’s colleague in the consulships of 46 BC into the role of power broker between the rivals Mark Antony and Octavian after the great dictators murder. He won wide-ranging Triumviral powers in the settlement of 43 BC, but took no part in the campaign against Brutus and Cassius and soon lost influence becoming a “third wheel” in a dyarchy. He helped Octavian defeat Sextus Pompey in 36 BC, but afterward overreached and was easily outmaneuvered by Octavian and stripped of all real powers, retaining only the post of Pontifex Maximus, which he held until his death in 12 BC.

      27 BC-14 AD – Augustus – AR Denarius 3.59g NGC VF 3/5-5/5 (Brockage)

      Obverse: Laureate head of Augustus, right,  CAESAR AUGUSTUS  before. The reverse of this spectacular coin features an exact (though incuse) mirror image of the obverse. This ancient error coin known as a brockage was made by placing a silver flan on top of an already struck piece resulting in the obverse design being impressed into the reverse of the newly struck coin. A truly unique piece combined with a great emperor. I wonder what Augustus would have thought of this coin?
