COLLECTION NO. 1459
Very rare variant of this otherwise popular reverse type (Alfoldi reverse type 6) in which there is additionally a captive at horse's feet (which is not depicted on the standard ADVENTVS AVG reverse struck at Siscia - see Alfoldi type 5 - contrary to the Adventvs Probi Avg reverse, on which the captive is always present).
This coin is not listed in Alfoldi for E1 bust and XXIP officina.
An unpublished unicum of the highest numismatic interest!
