ALFOLDI 095.001 VAR. - UNLISTED WITH Q IN FIELD
OBVERSE: IMP C M AVR PROBVS AVG
REVERSE: VIRTVS PROBI AVG (Mars in military attire walking right, holding trophy)
BUST TYPE: H2 = radiate bust left in consular robe, holding eagle-tipped sceptre (scipio)
FIELD / EXERGUE MARKS: -/Q//XXI
WEIGHT 3.52g / AXIS: 7h / WIDTH 19,5-21mm
RIC 811 (RIC does not distinguish between Mars in military attire and Mars nude)
ALFOLDI 095 / - (095.001 VAR. - UNLISTED WITH Q IN FIELD)
COLLECTION NO. 1160

Very rare variant of this otherwise popular reverse type in which Mars is in military attire instead of nude, as usual.

This is the only example of this type in my database. Possibly an unicum!

Ex. M. Griffiths collection
