PROBUS RIC 913 VAR. OFFICINA 2
OBVERSE: IMP C M AVR PROBVS P F AVG
REVERSE: VIRTVS PROBI AVG  = Emperor riding left, right hand raised, left hand holding sceptre, at foot, captive
BUST TYPE: E1 = Radiate, cuirassed and helmeted bust left, holding spear and shield
FIELD / EXERGUE MARKS: -/-//B
WEIGHT 4.17g / AXIS: 6h / DIAMETER: 22 mm
MINT: Cyzicus
RIC 913 VAR. (UNLISTED WITH B IN EXERGUE)
COLLECTION NO. 1570

Shield decorated with emperor riding on horse with soldiers visible in background (it is difficult to determine whether there is an adventvs or virtvs scene depicted on the shield) 

Virtually as struck and with full original silvering!

The only example of this exact type known to me! Extremely rare variant, possibly unique!
