Ave!

Belt Mount, T is for Felix Vtere, Rare!

Copper alloy; 28mm/3.8gm

Con/ As Cast; green patina with three attachment studs, one with original washer!

Seller's Note/ FELIX VTERE roughly translates to "Use with Good Luck/Fortune." From the late 2nd to the mid 3rd century lettered belt sets, especially the famous VTERE FELIX type were popular. They are most commonly found in the middle and lower Danube regions and in Dacia. These sets consisted of individual letters which were attached to the belt with rivets on their reverse. The most common types actually spelled out FELIX  (buckle) VTERE when the belt was worn, though (buckle) VTERE FELIX when the belt was off. Clear enough?
