Date: 1st century B.C..According to tradition, Rome was founded in 753 B.C. by the twins Romulus and Remus. Sons of the god Mars and a mortal woman named Rhea Silvia, a direct descendant of Aeneas, the twins were abandoned by their uncle in the Tibur river. A she-wolf discovered them on the banks of the river and suckled them until they were taken in by a passing sheperd, Faustulus. Faustulus raised the boys together with his own twelve children until they decided to found a city of their own. They chose the spot by the Tibur where they had been rescued by the wolf, which was near the base of the Palatine hill in Rome. The representation of the wolf suckling the twins became a popular subject in Roman Republican and Imperial art. Here the sheperd Faustulus leans on his staff and watches the Roman she-wolf suckling the twins under a vine. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New Youncia.

Parthian Numismatists - the scholars who study coins - refer to the front’ side of the coin, which usually features the head of a person or god, as the obverse,’ and the back’ side as the reverse.’This small silver coin is in fragmentary condition, making it difficult to identify the types on it. On the obverse, a bust of the king faces to the left. He has a beard and long wavy hair, and wears a crenelated crown. The image is surrounded by a border of dots. The reverse type is all but impossible to discern, though parts of a Persian inscription are visible.This coin was minted by King Ardashir II of Persis, sometime in the first century B.C. Persis refers to a region in southwestern Iran which was the heartland of the Achaemenid Empire. Under the Seleucids and Parthians, Persis was ruled by client kings like Ardashir, who combined elements of Achaemenid, Seleucid and Parthian iconography on their coins.This coin was excavated at Qasr-i Abu Nasr, near ShiraDenar - Barkteat; approx. 1317/1318-OK. 1327/1328 (1317-00-00-1328-00-00);AE.
