geneva - A rare Roman coin depicting Brutus, one of the assassins of Julius Caesar, has been sold for almost 2 million euros at an auction in Geneva. The coin, believed to be minted around 43 BC, was purchased by a European collector.

The historic coin was bought by a European collector at an auction house in Geneva. It features a portrait of Brutus, one of the assassins of Julius Caesar, and is believed to have been minted around 43 BC, a year after Caesar's death. The assassination is one of the most famous conspiracies in Western history and has been widely documented, including in a play by William Shakespeare.

After the assassination, Brutus and the other conspirators were expelled from Rome and fled to Greece, where the coin was likely produced. In 42 BC, their army was defeated by Marcus Antonius and Octavianus, later Emperor Augustus. Brutus committed suicide, but Octavianus had his severed head brought to Rome and placed it at the foot of Caesar's statue.
