Rx: CONCORDIA - AVG Ceres, veiled, seated left holding two wheat ears, poppy, and cornucopia, EPHE ligate in exergue. Obv. legend var. of RIC 1440 (R ), BM 467, Paris 358, Cohen 39 corr. (40 Fr.), and RPC 843 (7 spec.). Good VF.
Ex Harry N. Sneh Collection, acquired from Ponterio, c. 2003.
From the same obverse die as the unique aureus in BM with AVG in Wreath reverse type, RIC 1437, pl. 77 = BM 462, pl. 16.13. The E instead of F at the end of the obverse legend is evidently an engraver's error.
