Amazing portrait of Agrippa. Coin is EF condition. Beautiful apple-green patina.
Agrippa was a very close friend of the emperor Augustus. He was a brilliant general, winning the battle of Actium against Cleopatra and Marc Antony. He was to be the next emperor of Rome after Augustus, but alas predeceased emperor Augustus.
