Sharp Little Bronze Figurine of Mercury. Roman, 2nd-3rd century AD. The god, nude but for his cloak, stands with arms out, holding his attributes -- a money bag and caduceus. On his head, a winged cap; with wings at his ankles also. His figure well modeled and sharp, his face handsome. But for the missing caduceus, part of which is still evident, the sculpture nearly pristine, with dark brown and green patina. Height: 3". A choice example of this popular work.
Estimated Value $775 - 975.
