Excellent portrait of Marc Antony with his rival Octavian on the reverse. Minted by moneyer Barbatius Pollio (3.93 grams). Marc Antony was friend to Julius Caesar and subsequently fought against Octavian for leadership of Rome. Antony was lover to Cleopatra and died with her in Egypt when they were defeated by the forces of Octavian. This coin is truly a piece of history.
