Photo of a coin sold the 07/10/2015 by Classical Numismatic Group, Auction 100, lot 1971, link to the sale: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=2663379, link to their website: https://www.cngcoins.com/. Low weight of 4.33 grs for a very well preserved coin.

Variant without jewel on the diadem. The classification number is ''b'' and not ''b var'' as is the case for other officinas when the jewel is absent on the diadem; because I have not seen any coin with this officina with a bust presenting a jewel on the diadem. This officina always seems to decorate the top of the standard in the same way.
