Valerius Gratus with kantharos at last!

I finally got a hold of this Gratus prutah. Not easy to find with the legend. Possibly the last coin he issued.

Does anyone know the significance of the kantharos on this coin?

Thanks and enjoy,
Nemo

Nice example Nemo.  Yes, they're very tough to find with complete legends (and date).  I'm still searching for an upgrade for my collection.
