    Marc Antony, as Triumvir and Imperator (43-30 BC). AR denarius (18mm, 3.67 gm, 7h). Legionary issue, mint moving with Antony in Greece (Aegae or Patrae), 32-31 BC.

    The legion possibly represented on this coin was Legio II Augusta. It was founded around 43 BC, and swore allegiance to Octavian after the Battle of Philippi in 42 BC, and remained in his service through the Battle of Actium. Afterward, it was apparently dissolved between 30-14 BC, and soon after reformed as the new Legio II Augusta
    Somewhat corroded, almost extremely fine
