I like both Gallic and Gallienus rarities, and that's a very nice one!

Look a little closer Agrippa,

this is actually ...VII P VII F on the reverse, a variant to RIC 330 (different bust type). Sorry I don't have Göbl, just RIC.

Best regards,

Rupert

Yes ofcourse you're right.
On my card in my coin tray I wrote VII P VII F but with Gobl 992c so this must be Gobl 993c.
Thanks.

Best, Jos
