From the Aurum Barbarorum Collection.

The style of this piece is extremely close to Aurum Barbarorum II, 1900-1902, but the legend is more blundered, revealing that it was minted slightly later. It is still earlier than Aurum Barbarorum II, 1903, however, another subargentum imitation of considerably cruder style.
