Vespasian - Flavian dynasty RIC-2, BMCRE 2-5 coin 1307 viewsI've seen this exact coin sold by 3 reputable dealers. The dealer I purchased mine from refunded my money and the other 2 removed the coin from their sites. I have another picture of the coin from one of the dealers I'll post shortly. Note the orientation/shape of the flans are identical as are the imperfections - see the one at 12 o'clock on the reverse. The individual coins look genuine however. - Flavians Fan
