IMP XXXXII COS XVII P P (type II, B) (441 / 450)

One coin sold on 23 June 2018 par KATZ Auction, eAuction 14, lot 1620, link to the sale: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=6221251, resold on 27 October 2018, eAuction 16, lot 1565, link to the sale: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=6228323, then resold again by the same auction house on 23 March 2019, eAuction 20, lot 1143, link to the sale: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=6239309. It is unfortunate that we do not know the weight of the coin. 

Variant with a dot in the throne on the reverse and an obverse die linked to a coin bearing the CONOB mark. This dot doesn't appear to be a break because it's perfectly clean and round. Its size doesn't correspond to a dot representing the scepter held by the figure.. This is very strange; it may have been an attempt to mark a new series.

See this issue explaining all the interesting points concerning this die link, the striking order, the breaks, other examples with the same obverse die and other important details: https://www.all-your-coins.com/fr/archives-anciennes/romaines-imperiales/imp-xxxxii-cos-xvii-p-p-type-ii-b-441450-1203. An obverse die linked to many different reverse dies and having strange peculiarities.

Type II: with the mark CONOB or COMOB (CONOB here) and the reverse legend generally ending at the level of the shield. No legend punctuation on the reverse. A square, upright throne, the right knee is rounded, natural drapery, and a vertical scepter. This corresponds to Type I of RIC X. Variant B is the same as RIC X: a smaller, rounder shield.
