Description: This extremely rare ancient Roman coin depicts Fortuna on the obverse and Cupid riding a Dolphin on the reverse. It was minted during the reign of emperor Augustus from 27BC to 14AD at the Carteia Mint. Emperor Gaius Julius Caesar Augustus, also known as Octavianus or Octavian, was the founder of the Roman Empire; he reigned as the first Roman emperor from 27 BC until his death in AD 14. The reign of Augustus initiated an imperial cult as well as an era associated with imperial peace, the Pax Romana or Pax Augusta, in which the Roman world was largely free of armed conflict aside from expansionary wars and the Year of the Four Emperors. The Principate system of imperial rule established by Augustus lasted until the Crisis of the Third Century. The denomination of this coin is a quadrans, and it belongs to the era of ancient Rome. The coin is a great addition to any coin collection. 2256
