PROBUS RIC 862 VAR. H4 BUST OFFICINA 2 ("S")
OBVERSE: IMP C M AVR PROBVS AVG
REVERSE: SOLI INVICTO
BUST TYPE: H4 = Radiate bust right in imperial mantle (toga picta and tunica palmata), holding eagle-tipped sceptre (scipio) 
FIELD / EXERGUE MARKS: -/-//S
WEIGHT 3.57g / AXIS: 6H / WIDTH 22mm
RIC 862 VAR. (H4 BUST AND "S" MINTMARK UNLISTED)
COLLECTION NO. 1436

Ex Ph. Gysen collection

Rare and desirable bust type in combination with an extremely rare latin mintmark from the very brief phase B of the 3rd emmission (with only latin mintmarks) - see "S" instead of the usual KAB mintmark for second officina at Serdica. 

NOTE: only the 5th specimen of this exact type known to me
