Processional cross. Castile, Catholic Monarchs, ca. 1500. Bronze. Measurements: 13 x 12 cm (Christ); 49 x 43 cm (cross). Processional crucifix, made at the end of the 15th century, during the reign of the Catholic Monarchs. It is a bronze piece, worked by casting, including the figure of Christ on the front and the Virgin and Child on the back in a half-bulk, with details made by means of engraving and flat chiselling. As for the typology of the cross, it follows the models typical of the western Mediterranean in the Gothic period, with arms topped with fleur-de-lis, with fleurons (acorns in this case), which emerge in the shape of a cross. These vegetal elements were in constant use in the Gothic period.

Roman coins Empire Domitian (81-96) Quinarius - Laureate head r. - R/ Victory seated l. - RIC 516 AG (g 1.61) RR Beautiful specimen, by far the best that has appeared on the market. In the history of Roman coinage the quinary, that is, the half denarius, has always played a marginal role being minted only occasionally and on special occasions. While quinari from the Republican age are almost all very common, they begin to become rare in the Imperial age until they become very rare in the third century. Probably the quinari of the imperial age were related to donations from the emperors so much so that very often Victory is found in the reverses. - SPL+
