Wanting to Buy SGF 54mm Roman Signifier Figure

[Redcap]

Does anyone have this 54mm 'Soldiers SGF' figure in their GA that they would like to sell please?

I think the number was SR-31.

Thank you.

Cool piece! Never seen it before. Later Empire, maybe mid 3rd - 4th Century?

Hi Steve. No mate I believe it's a 1st / 2nd Century era piece.

See you Saturday at Leeds.

It wasn't to torment you, just because in the photo the subject is written with precision, with dates and legion of belonging.
I thought I had already found it after these days, so no "playful" intentions!

Thanks Rebe - I was only joking with you mate and my fingers are still crossed that one will turn up.

Of course, there are no problems man !! I thought you had already found it and there were doubts about the dating of the soldier.
I saw one last week on Ebay, if it will be useful to you. For the rest, it is a beautiful model !!! !!!!!!!​

Thanks for the tip off about eBay and confirmation that there are still some copies around. I have a friend who is in touch with someone in Italy and I MAY have tracked one down but I await confirmation. Whist it may not be 100% historically accurate, I want to include this piece with the Alexandros 54mm Marcomanni set; all of which I have and this one will fit in just perfectly for a group setting.

Cheers Rebe and best regards.

I know all these pieces very well, but none are historically perfect !!
The SGF piece is much older, but in line with historical research as it is always a piece sculpted by Laruccia.
However, I can warn you that the Alexandros models are a bit larger in scale, so consider compatibility well !!Mine is just a piece of advice that I feel I can share, obviously without being a categorical opinion.
I hope I have been useful to you, good job !!

Thanks Rebe and if it isn't compatible for the reasons you give, I can always use it as a stand-alone piece.

STILL looking by the way as it seems the Italy seller hasn't now got one.

Of course, it remains a beautiful and excellently carved piece. I hope your search is successful and you will find one !! Regards​
