Thanks for any help ID’ing this 18mm 4.0g. bronze coin. From the extensive reverse legend, I think it’s an issue of Carthago Nova, Spain, but I can’t find a match in Numista’s impressive list. Seems like the name L. TITV(S)? CIVI II VIR QVIN(T)? might also be included, but I can’t make sense of the top line of reverse legend.
Roman Provincial Coins
MACEDON. Uncertain. Psuedo-autonomous.
Time of Augustus (27 BC-14 AD). Ae. Pella or Dium;
C. Herennius and L. Titucius, duoviri quinquennalis.
Obv: C HERENNIVS L TITVCIVS II VIR QVIN. Warrior, holding spear,
on horse rearing right.
Rev: C HERENNIVS / L TITVCIVS / II VIR QVIN. Legend in three lines.
RPC I 1532. Weight: 4.1 g. Diameter: 17 mm.
The last two letters [VS] of the first line are off the edge
C HERENNIVS / L TITVCIVS / II VIR QVIN
That link I found had the obverse lettering incorrectly -
it is NERON below the horseman, and unknown [AW or MV] on top right.
‘The obverse legend … NERON[ ], a reference to Nero Claudius Drusus, son of Tiberius’.
