Very attractive example!!

 

Bragging on his coins that he is Divi Filivs (Son of a God). Wasn't Octavian one humble fella?

Nice coin, and happy birthday.

 

Happy birthday and great new coin Ro.

 

Happy B'day
Good coin. I have a similar one, but really less attractive by far

Q

 

Happy birthday! Great coin. I love this type, partly for the reason @Sallent mentioned and also for the exceptional portrait of Octavian. I bought the below example about a year ago. Mine is ex RBW Collection and ex Frederick J. Knobloch Collection (Stacks, 1978).

 

Great coin ro - the bust of Augustus is super!

 

Nice present to yourself. I should do the same as I do like to get presents.

I mean no offence by adding some English suggestions but this is a suggestion of how a native English speaker might have said the same thing.

Tomorrow will be my birthday. This is my present for myself.

Octavian and Julius Caesar Ae. sestertius, DIVI F, bare h. of Octavian r., star in field to r., rev., DIVOS IVLIVS within laurel wreath (Sear, 466).

You can see the details in the sun, DIVOS IVLIVS and DIVI F, too.
I have always wanted one but, for all that time, I could not afford one.
This one had a fair price.

19.97g

These are vendor pictures. I have to wait for the mail before I can photograph it.

I have always wanted one of these or one of the similar coins with the portrait of Julius on the reverse but have not yet found one for my collection. Congratulations on finding such a nice one. Thank you for sharing it.

 

my english is indeed very bad

 

Happy Bday, Ro!



Nice coin.

That's a great birthday coin @ro1974, one missing from my collection. I have a sestertius struck in Gaul, at Colonia Viennensis, in 36BC. The obverse has Divus Julius Caesar on the left and Octavian on the right.


Happy Birthday Ro!
