Rev.: FORTVNA OPSEQVENS (around) COS IIII (in ex.) S C (in field), Fortuna standing left, with patera, rudder and cornucopiae.
RIC 1001 (C); BMC 2059-60; Cohen 393; Strack 1163 (4 spec.); Banti 163; Foss (RHC) 130:68
The cult of this divinity, not celebrated previously on imperial coinage, goes back to ancient times and was established by Servius Tullius, Rome's sixth king.
Even though according to RIC this coin is common, it may be scarcer. Strack found 4 specimens, but there is no example in Wildwinds nor Acsearch.info; Banti records only 1 other specimen.

Peloponnesos, Sikyon AE Chalkous, Dove & Wreath (BCD Peloponnesos 328.11 = J. Warren No. 8A.13i)Photo Credit: Forum GB29479 [LINK]
Greek (Classical). Sikyonia, Sikyon AE Chalkous (14mm, 2.00g, 7h), c. 190-146 BCE.
Obv: Dove flying left, K to left.
Rev: ΣΙ within wreath.
Ref: BCD Peloponnesos 328.11 = Warren No. 8A.13i (Warren, Jennifer, 1984, “The Autonomous Bronze Coinage of Sicyon (Part 2),” Num. Chron. 144: described on p. 8, illustrated on pl. 1, No. 13) [LINK]; HGC 5, 278 (citing BCD 326-329). See also (this coin): Coin Project ID 29479 [LINK].
Prov: Ex BCD Collection; LHS 96 (8 May 2006), Lost 328 (part); Forum Ancient Coins (Joe Sermarini), n.d., GB29479 [LINK].
Notes: The Forum listing gave two different date ranges which actually serve to bookend the widely disparate dates proposed by scholars and dealers: "c. 196 - 146 B.C." in the title and "c. 323 - 251 B.C." in the description. BCD Peloponnesos (cat. by ASW) gave the later range (close to Jennifer Warren's above). The earliest bronzes of this type are usually dated c. 330-320 BCE (e.g., HGC 5, 260 = Warren 1998, 218 = BCD Pelo 313 [LINK]). The style remained remarkably consistent for perhaps 150-180 years, so, until I find the dispute in the literature, I'm guessing that dealers sometimes assign the early date to later coins by mistake.Curtis JJ
