ID/Crispina

(1/1)

dmay:
I have been trying to locate this reverse.  I know that this looks like a typical Crispina denarius with the IVNO reverse.  It is referenced as Sear 6001, RIC 283 and BMC 41.  However, all the images I have been able to find list Juno standing with a peacock.  However, as you see in the scan, the peacock has flown the coop.  Is there another variant that I am overlooking which does not have the peacock?  Is it possible this a fourree?  It is a very thin coin and light (1.9 gm). 

Thank you for any insight you might provide.

BMC 41 note: "Variant of rev., no peacock, C. 22 (Paris)."

In Reka Devnia hoard:  13 spec. without peacock, 117 with peacock.
