NOT IN RIC

UNLISTED OBVERSE LEGEND AND BUST TYPE. RIC lists for Crispus in this issue only legend CRISPVS NOB CAESAR and bust type B4 [bust r., laur., dr., cuir.] (p. 432). Assuming that this coin belongs to the next issue [ASIS•] and the pellet in exergue is worn we have now RIC VII SISCIA 64 with unlisted officina - Î, because RIC lists only officina B (p. 433 - rarity R5!)

NOTES

Offered on eBay in May 2004 for $65. Now in Zachary Beasley's collection.
