Crescent, later issue. Distinguishable from the earlier issue Crawford 57/1 primarily by style but easily distinguishable by the very small reverse ROMA ledgend in a frame that is only about 2/3 across the exergue. This feature is found on all of the consecutive listings in RRC from Cr. 137-157. The reverse is slightly off-center but nearly complete and GVF with lovely light natural toning.
