Note: All military busts from Lugdunum, including this beautiful F8 var. bust, (struck during the 5th emmission) are either scarce, rare or very rare and are always very desirable.
Virtually as struck with full silvering and mint luster. Exceedingly rare in such a spectacular state of preservation!
