ALFOLDI 073 / - (UNLISTED)
COLLECTION NO. 1318
NOTE: PEGASUS ON SHIELD

The only specimen of this exact type known to me! (This coin is desribed on probuscoins.fr as Alföldi 73/71 but in my opinion this attribution is incorrect; Alfoldi 73/71 does not have a Pegasus on shield but a horseman with soldiers in the field; also the position of the gamma mintmark is more to the right intead of central as shown on coin no. 73/71)

Same obverse die as my coin no. 817 (Adventvs Probi Avg with gamma//XXI in exergue) and coin. no. 767 (Adventvs Probi Avg with KA in exergue).

Provenance: Paul Francis Jacquier auction 45 lot 1542 = ex Ph. Gysen collection
Keywords: probus
