Claudius II - VICTORIA AVG - bust type
« on: February 05, 2018, 09:27:37 am »
Dear friends,
I've purchased this little ant of Claudius II:



the bust type for me is the O2: Head right, radiate, with traces of drapery to front and rear of truncation

but I'm not able to find any example on RIC online... it's a not in RIC coin?

Surely that's cuirassed.

It doesn't look like a cuirassed bust as this type

This is why I like Gobl.  Don't have to worry about what it is called as much as matching the photo and using the corresponding letter code.

I also think your die damage giving us a crying Claudius is fascinating.
