Dea Caelestis on lion, right, facing, holding drum and scepter
"Cast in Gaul" imitation of RIC ROME 415c
This new specimen is an ancient cast of a mint coin, not a mint coin itself. Such lightweight casts (22 mm, 3,49 g) in brass, usually on thin round flans, are what Cohen calls "Cast in Gaul". Specimens in the BM coll. are BMC V pl. 49.3, 50.5-6, and 52.8. They are considerably commoner than the struck originals. "The obverse die of your cast is somewhat unusual, for I only know ONE original from that same die, as against a dozen or so of the casts. The original has the same rev. die too, but that rev. was also used with other obverses so is known to me in numerous specimens, e.g. BM pl. 50.3." (Courtesy of C. Clay)
