This rare ancient Roman coin dating back 2000 years depicts the letters SC (Senato Consulto) on the obverse and a 3 legged Modius on the reverse.


On Roman coins the modius with stalks of grain and sometimes poppy, hanging or rising from it, indicates the fertility of the empire and the imperial liberality and providence in procuring, and in bestowing grain to the people.


The coin bears the denomination of Quadrans and is a rare and valuable piece of history that collectors and enthusiasts would love to add to their collection. The year of minting is between 41-54 AD, making it a significant piece of history.


The ruler of this coin is Claudius I, who was a famous emperor of Rome. Claudius (full name Tiberius Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus) was the fourth Roman emperor from 41 to 54 AD. Best known for the successful expansion of Rome into Britain and parts of Africa and the Middle East, Claudius was an accomplished leader who brought forth improvements to the empire's judicial system, passed laws protecting enslaved workers, extended Roman citizenship and gave citizens more rights. After marrying his niece Agrippina, Claudius adopted her son Lucius Domitius Ahenobarbus (later the emperor Nero) to satisfy Agrippina's lust for power, much to the disadvantage of his own son Britannicus. Roman tradition is unanimous: Claudius was poisoned by Agrippina on October 13, 54 CE, though the details differ.


Many at the time considered him to be too weak to rule compared to his predecessors, but much was still unknown by the public about the upstart ruler and the only surviving heir of Emperor Augustus.


This coin is sure to catch the eye of collectors and enthusiasts alike, and its historical significance is unparalleled.
