RIC VII, LYONS [before 132], CRISPUS, UNLISTED OBVERSE LEGEND

  

OBVERSE

IVLCRIS-PVSNOBC [IVL CRISPVS NOB C]; bust r., laur., dr. (?), cuir.

REVERSE

BEATATRANQVILLITASS [BEATA TRANQVILLITASS (sic!)]; globe set on altar inscribed VO/TIS/XX in three lines; above, three stars. C in left field, R in right field. PLG in exergue.

NOT IN RIC

UNLISTED OBVERSE LEGEND. Not attested for this issue (p. 131) and not listed before LYONS 210. Not listed in Bastien Lyon (318-337) and Bastien Lyon - suppléments I-II.

It is unclear if there is rev. legend break and this specimen belongs to the next issue [LYONS 153-196]. Also bust type could be described in two ways: B4 or B5. Note error in rev. legend: ...TASS instead of ...TAS. Coin may be regarded as an ancient imitation. Otherwise, should be listed before LYONS 132.
