Roman Empire Set of 3 Coins: 2 Sestertius (1 of Hadrian and other of Antoninus Pius ) + 1 Dupondius (Lucius (No reserve price)
This set of three Roman Empire coins includes two Sestertii and one Dupondius, featuring emperors Hadrian, Antoninus Pius, and Lucius Verus respectively. The Sestertius was a large bronze coin widely used during the Roman Empire, notable for its size and detail, which makes it particularly prized by collectors. Hadrian and Antoninus Pius ruled during the height of the Roman Empire's stability and prosperity in the 2nd century AD, known as the era of the 'Five Good Emperors.' Their coinage often celebrates architectural achievements, deities, and imperial virtues. The Dupondius, a smaller bronze coin than the Sestertius, was also used commonly for everyday transactions. Coins from these emperors provide a window into Roman art, propaganda, and economy. Their iconography and inscriptions reveal significant historical information about imperial policy and public messaging during a time of relative peace and consolidation.
