The bronze Sestertius of the mid to late 2nd century AD is one of the most celebrated and actively collected denominations in all of Roman numismatics, its large, generous flan providing ancient die engravers with a canvas of sufficient size to execute portrait and reverse compositions of exceptional detail and artistic ambition that smaller denominations simply could not accommodate. Sestertii of the Antonine period are universally regarded as representing Roman coin portraiture at its absolute finest. This Roman Empire AE Sestertius Coin is in Very Fine condition, according to the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC), and boasts 4/5 grades for both the strike and surface quality. Now, Roman Empire Marcus Aurelius AE Sestertius Coins are available online from JM Bullion.
Coin Highlights:
These Roman Empire Marcus Aurelius AE Sestertius Coins arrive in Very Fine condition with strong 4/5 grades for strike and surface. The coin’s design elements are well struck and centered, with impressive detail still visible. The surfaces showcase minimal wear and tear for the age. Coins of Marcus Aurelius are among the most sought-after of all Antonine issues, due to the portrait quality and the historical associations with one of antiquity’s most admired and intellectually distinguished rulers.
The Sestertii of Marcus Aurelius present some of the finest portrait work in the entire Roman imperial coinage tradition; the emperor’s distinctive bearded features, philosophical bearing, and the quiet, introspective quality of his expression were rendered with a psychological depth and humanistic sensitivity that make the best examples genuine masterworks of ancient portraiture. The reverse types are extraordinarily varied and historically informative, with this particular coin celebrating the emperor’s victories along the Danube in the form of the figure of Victory placing a shield on a palm.
The Sestertii of Marcus Aurelius, the philosopher-emperor whose Meditations remains one of the most read and admired works of Stoic philosophy two millennia after its composition, were produced across a reign of almost unrelenting military crisis that saw the emperor spend the majority of his nineteen-year tenure on campaign against Germanic tribes on the Danube frontier rather than in the philosophical contemplation he preferred.
