Lot # 477 - MARK ANTONY. Denarius (37 BC). Antioch or military mint traveling with Canidius Crassus in Armenia. Obv: ANTONIVS AVGVR COS DES ITER ET TERT. Bare head right.Rev: IMP TERTIO III VIR R P C. Armenian tiara right, decorated with three stars; all over crossed bow and arrow.Crawford 539/1; CRI 297; RBW 1828.This Denarius commemorates the victory achieved in Armenia by Publius Canidius Crassus, general and lieutenant of Mark Antony. Crassus served under Lepidus in southern Gaul in 43 BC, then after the War of Perugia became suffect consul in 40. In 37 he was sent with six legions to Armenia, where he demonstrated great military and strategic qualities, defeating the king of Iberia Farnabazus II and then attacking Albania. Crassus then defeated the local king Zober and concluded advantageous alliance agreements. The operation had been ordered by Mark Antony in preparation for the more challenging offensive against the Parthians, occupying a strategic region that would allow him to attack the enemy from the north, avoiding passing through the Mesopotamian desert. Canidius Crassus joined the army of Mark Antony in 36 BC but the Parthian campaign proved a disaster. In 34 BC he also participated in the campaign against the Armenian king Artavasdes II and other operations in the East. During the war against Octavian Canidius Crassus remained loyal to Mark Antony but began to come into conflict with him mainly because of Cleopatra's interference. After the battle of Actium he also fled to Egypt, leaving the legions in the hands of Octavian. Following the suicide of Antony and Cleopatra, Canidius Crassus was captured and put to death. Condition: Very fine.Weight: 3.76 g. Diameter: 20 mm.

Lot # 488 - C. Cassius and Lentulus Spinther. AR Denarius, 43-42 BC, mint moving with Brutus and Cassius. Obv. C. CASSI IMP. Tripod with Cortina, decorated with two laurel branches and fillets. Rev. Jug and lituus, below, LENTVLVS SPINT. Cr. 500/1; B. (Cassia) 14; RRSC D279.1. AR. 3.98 g. 19 mm. R. Rare and superb, with enchanting tone. Good EF. C. Cassius Longinus was one of the principal conspirators against Julius Caesar. Following the assassination, he moved to the East, where he sought to amass an army. His prior reputation of military success against the Parthians while governing the province of Syria proved invaluable, and by 43 BC his army boasted nearly twelve legions. He was able to stave off Antony's general Dolabella, secured his base in Syria, and begin preparations for an invasion of Egypt. At the same time, Antony, Octavian, and Lepidus formed the triumvirate, and this posed too great a threat to ignore. Cassius halted his impending invasion of Egypt and moved West to meet up with Brutus' forces at Smyrna. The two regicides agreed to take joint action against the triumvirs, and began by attacking their allies in Asia. The following year the pair moved into Thrace, and chose a position outside Philippi to meet the approaching army of Antony and Octavian. Brutus moved against Octavian with great success, capturing the young Caesarian's camp, but Cassius' army was routed by Antony. Unaware of his partner's success, Cassius thought the entire cause was lost, and had his freedman Pindarus slay him. (CNG 225, 2010, lot 318 note).

Lot # 497 - Cleopatra and Mark Antony. AR Denarius, 34 BC. Alexandria mint. Obv. ANTONI. ARMENIA DEVICTA. Bare head of Mark Antony right; behind, Armenian tiara. Rev. CLEOPATRAE REGINAE REGVM FILIORVM REGVM. Draped and diademed bust of Cleopatra right. Cr. 543/1; RRSC D318. AR. 3.9 g. 18 mm. RR. Banker's mark on obverse. Iridescent hues. VF/Good VF. Until the publication of R. Newman's work, 'A Dialogue of Power in the Coinage of Antony and Octavian' in *AJN 2*, there was general agreement on the date and mint of this coin. Sear (CRI) aligns with Newman, attributing the coin to Alexandria, minted for Antony’s Armenian triumph in the autumn of 34 BC, coinciding with the 'Donations of Alexandria.' Newman argues that the coin must have been minted in 34 BC, during Antony’s triumph in Alexandria, as it would otherwise lack context. He rejects the solid arguments of Grueber and Sydenham, who suggest a different scenario. They propose that the coin was minted in Ephesus in the winter of 33/2 BC by Antony to reward Cleopatra for her substantial contributions to his war efforts. Antony was in Ephesus in 33 BC when Cleopatra arrived with the Egyptian fleet, and both forces stayed there over winter, preparing for their conflict with Octavian. The coin’s inscription could be interpreted as '[coin] of Antony, with Armenia being Conquered, for Cleopatra, Queen of Kings and of her Sons, being Kings.' The Armenian crown behind Antony signifies his victorious Roman army, while the prow beneath Cleopatra, unique to this coin, represents the powerful Egyptian fleet. Together, they symbolize the combined forces arrayed against Octavian.
