Rx: FELICITAS TEMPOR Wheat ear upright between two cornucopias. Ex Curtis L. Clay Collection. A very rare reverse type on Julia's Syrian denarii, all of which are rare. Cohen's, BMC's, and RIC's citation of this coin all go back to a specimen in the Welzl von Wellenheim Collection, sold in Vienna in 1844. RSC leaves the type unpriced, as though doubting its existence. There was one specimen in the Reka Devnia hoard, however.Part of flan chipped Part of flan chipped. Fine (240)
