Rare. Previously attributed to Augustus and Livia, RPC has re-assigned this issue to Claudius and Agrippina, as the length of the neck on the male portrait is more suggestive of representations of Claudius, and the presentation of the jugate bust is similar to others of the latter pair at nearby Ephesus.
