I have now managed to get both of the variations of the reverse legend for this type.


P  SEPT  GETA  CAES  PONT
Boy’s bare-headed bust draped right.

TEMP  /  OR  .  FELI  /  CITAS

TEM   /   POR  FELI   /   CITAS 

Legend in three lines within wreath.

Nice to get not only a rare type, but the different varieties of a rare type!

Both coins appear to be from the same obverse die.
