Von Aulock lists just eight coins from this mint, four of which are this type of Faustina II, and two each of both Marcus Aurelius and Lucius Verus. RPC publishes one additional coin of Marcus Aurelius and two of Lucius Verus, but no further examples of Faustina II. Of the four coins of Faustina, all are noted as being in museum collections. Thus the present offering presents a singular opportunity to acquire an extremely rare coin from an extremely rare mint. Additionally, this coin is only slightly inferior to one other, making it the second finest known.
