COLLECTION NO. 1236

Very rare and desirable variety with the lion walking right and head of ox in front of the lion. This is by far the rarest of the 6 known variants of the reverse type with lion for Siscia.

The only example of this type known to me. Possibly unique!

Same reverse die as my coins no. 1022 and no. 613
