Ref: CAESAR Aeneas, left, carrying palladium in right hand and Anchises on left shoulder, border of dots. Extremely Fine. Aeneas, son of the goddess Aphrodite and the Trojan prince Anchises... During the Trojan War, his mother Aphrodite was his tutelary goddess. Spending his childhood on the slopes of Mount Ida, the Trojan hero settled in Italy after the Trojan War and founded a kingdom, which will be the basis of Rome. On the coin we can see the old father of Aeneas. On his shoulders and in his other hand we see Palladium, the symbol of the city. In connection with a number of mysterious myths and the myth of the founding of the city of Ilion, Palladion was sent to Italy by Aeneas. Remus and Romulus, who founded afterwards the city Rome, are descended from Aeneas, i.e. from the Trojan family tree. Julius Caesar also traces his descent back to Aeneas and used this coin to refer to his own descent. Described by Pactolus Numismatic Academy (PNA).Estimate: 500 EUR
