Very rare and atractive Probus AE quinarius from Rome mint.
Interesting variant not published in RIC with jugate bust of emperor and Sol left, not right as RIC nº 263 (Vol.V part.II. R4 rarity grade)
IMP.C.PROBVS AVG. Amazing reverse with the four seasons as children playing. FELICIA.TEMPORA. completes legends too. 1,70 grs.
