One coin sold by Emporium Hamburg. Link to the sale: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=5366594. Another coin sharing same obverse die sold by Adolph Hess AG, 22/05/1935, Münzen der Römischer Kaiser, lot 4657.

This coin share the same obverse die as the AYC #11 (1), RIC 2054 and as the coin illustrated in the RIC X plate 51, n°2054.

The reference RIC 2054 given by Emporium Hamburg is not correct, the RIC 2054 contains the legend break SALVS REI - PVBLICAE. This is therefore RIC 2052 (see AYC # 11 (1), RIC 2054).
