Asia Minor

Asia Minor, Uncertain Bronze 27 BC-AD 14., Æ 25mm., 17.56g. Bare head r. Rev. Spear, sella quaestoria (Quaestor's seat of office), and fiscus (imperial treasury); Q below sella. RPC 5409. There is some debate as to the portrait on this type, as well as its origin. The obverse style is strikingly similar to that of RPC 4082 (Cilicia), which has the legend PRINCEPS FELIX, identifying the portrait indubitably as Augustus. It has also been suggested that the type portrays C. Sosius, a general of Marc Antony, who was quaestor of Syria and Cilicia in 38 BC.
