Unique Vespasian Obol Dattari plate coin
« on: June 29, 2020, 12:13:08 am »
According to sources such as RPC this coin is the only one known of its type. It is rather an ugly coin but it has its good points as well. I like the portrait and I love the history of this coin. This coin was published in Dattari Savio (1999) and in RPC. It was part of the Dattari collection and I am pleased to give it a good home.
