Okay, but since it is at least the third coin from these dies, it does not quite explain the price to me. I would have expected 300 to 400 Euro, but 1,000??

Hi, first post here. I came across this thread when trying to identify this Hadrian coin. It looks like the same portrait die from #133 and #148. Maridvnum, could this be a match for the coin you posted in #24?

Thank you for the confirmation!
After scrolling through the thread again I think it is an exact match for reply#103.

On second look the middle on has draped bust, so the two
others are RIC II part 3 #3111, rated R3.

Yes definitely not Rome mint lettering.  Once you develop an eye for what to look for it's easy to spot them.

To be honest here i find his bust more eastern style than it's legends
in RIC 2990 1e plate coin it can be seen but not very easy
note 1461 on A1 bust
 "Scruffy lettering style looks eastern"
