Valentinian I Felicitas Romanorum
« on: March 10, 2013, 04:24:44 pm »
I won this coin today as part of a group, sorry about the pic, it's the sellers. I beleive this is RIC IX Aquileia 16(a). The second pic is part of page 86, RIC IX .Understanding that RIC IX was published in 1933, I am wondering how many more of these are now known?
If there is interest I will post better pics of the coin when it arrives.

They are fairly rare. Below is an example for Valens that I have of Aquileia 16b.

Victor is correct; it is rare. Other than the two posted here, have not encountered one up for sale. A short lived local issue.
Well spotted and congrats on your special find. Doesn't feel nice to have recognized something special and fetched it.
Makes this rather mundane type a little more varied.
