Lotto 394:
Augustus (27 B.C - 14 AD). AR Denarius, Italian (Rome?) mint., 29-27 BC. Obv. Bare head right. Rev. Facade of the Roman Curia with a tetrastyle porch; IMP CAESAR on the architrave; figure seated between animals, vis-à-vis, in pediment; Victory standing facing on globe, holding wreath and vexillum, on apex of roof; statues, each holding a parazonium and sceptre, standing at each end of architrave. RIC I (2nd ed.) 266; C. 122. AR. 3.74 g. 20.5 mm. Banker's marks on obverse. Good VF. For a long time, this structure was believed to be the temple dedicated to Divus Julius. However, it can now be confidently identified as the Curia Julia, which was started by Caesar shortly before his assassination in 44 BC and officially inaugurated by Octavian on August 28, 29 BC.
