Interesting and scarce reverse type highlighting the close connection of Aurelian with the Roman region of Illyricum from where he originated (modern western Balcans).
Note: Extremely fine, with great details and wonderful dark, even patina! Aurelian's portrait of the finest style. Very rare in such an exceptional state of preservation!
