ex G.J.R. Ankoné collection
Note: Scarce variant of this otherwise popular reverse type.
Virtually as struck and with full original silvering. Very rare in such an exceptional state of preservation.
Dość rzadki wariant skądinąd popularnego i charakterystycznego dla Aureliana rewersu z Solem i tytulaturą ORIENS AVG.
Wspaniały, menniczy egzemplarz z pełnym zachowanym srebrzeniem powierzchniowym. Bardzo rzadki w tak świetnym stanie zachowania.
