Hello everyone!
Could someone help me identify this type of bust? Is it consular one?
Best Regards

That is a cuirassed bust rather than a consular one.

There are many different sub-types but they are not noted in the standard references.

Here is one that is largely similar but yours has a stylised aegis on the chest.



This one is described as "Radiate cuirassed bust right, wearing aegis, fold of paludamentum on left shoulder"

Thank's a lot! Second one  looks almost like mine. I haven't seen this type of bust before.
BTW: Gorgerous Probus coins!  +++
