Item 216349
ROMAN IMPERATORIAL PERIOD: Mark Antony and Cleopatra VII of Egypt, AR denarius (3.70g), Alexandria. S-1515. Crawford-543/1, CRI-345. ANTONI ARMENIA DEVICTA, head of M. Antony right; behind, Armenian tiara // CLEOPATRAE [REGINAE REGVM] FILIORVM REGVM, diademed and draped bust of Cleopatra right, the only properly Roman coin type graced by the portrait of Cleopatra, strike 3/5, surface 3/5, NGC graded VF, RR.
Estimated Value$1,500 - 2,000.

Struck in the autumn of 34 BC to commemorate Mark Antony's victory over Armenia, which was celebrated via an unusual and ostentatious triumph through the streets of Alexandria. During the triumphal celebration, Antony bestowed most of the Roman conquered territories in Syria and Cilicia to Cleopatra, but this donation was denied by the Senate, strengthening the position of Octavian, who finally defeated Antony just three years later, in 31 BC.
