This variety appears to be much rarer than RIC VIII's R2 rating indicates. RIC references LRBC and an example from the Chorleywood Hoard found in Hertfordshire, England in 1977. We found only one other example online - in the ForumMembers' Gallery.
The coin is described as "aF, scratches" and is priced at $135.00 US Dollars
