Argenteus. Weight 2.91 g. Sold on Numismatica Ars Classica auction 64 (lot 1303) in May 2012 for CHF 26,000. Note that this coin was described as from officina A; also Drost reads off. letter as "A" (this specimen shown on plate 46, no. 15/3). But compare specimens undoubtedly from off. A: OSTIA 13 (Wien RÖ 35545, 2.86 g, 20 mm) and another OSTIA 13 (plate 46, no. 15/1; cited in RIC).
Other specimens:
