Curtis Clay had referenced this bust for several other other types. I add this bust for this type, not referenced so far.
I noted "genius of the senate" on the reverse unlike RIC 4B which notes "the emperor standing on the left ...". Indeed, this character always appears at the same age and bearded whether it is for emperors bearded or not, young or old.
