Iconic RRC 1/1

Lot # 248 - Anonymous. AE 17 mm, Neapolis, after 326 BC. Obv. Laureate head of Apollo right. Rev. Forepart of man-headed bull right; above, PΩMAIΩN. Cr. 1/1; HN Italy 251; HGC 1 313; RBW 1. AE. 3.11 g. 17 mm. RRR. Exceptional example for this extremely rare coin, the best appeared on market. Perfect centering and attractive green patina. About EF. In 5th century B.C. metal by weight in Rome was based on the libra system, as evidenced by episodes of payments and fines mentioned by Livius. These were pieces of unworked bronze or in ingots. The use of aes rude is also evidenced in Italic and Etruscan contexts by archaeological finds from the 10th to the 4th century. The practice of bronze and silver coinage did not become established until the late 4th century, following the model and weight system of Neapolis, so these early minted coins are traditionally referred to as the “Romano-Campanian” series. This issue with Apollo's head and androcephalic bull protome is particularly significant, as it takes the same types as the Neapolitan coins, but with the Greek inscription PΩMAIΩN (=of the Romans). It was minted after the stipulation of the foedus aequum, an agreement sanctioned by Rome and Neapolis in 326 B.C., during the Second Samnite War, which initiated the Roman conquest of southern Italy. This was the period of Rome's greatest expansion, which thus found itself with the need to meet the costs of military enterprises and public works in the newly occupied territories.
