Watch List notes:

Augustus. 40-as; Augustus; 27 BC-14 AD, Ancient imitation of As struck in 15 MC by Moneyer C. Plotius Rufus, 7.45g. Cf. Paris-512, pl. XXV, and BM-156 (same dies as Paris-512). Obv: CAESAR AVGVSIVS (sic, T not crossed) - TRIBVNC (sic, second I omitted) POTES (sic, rather than the normal POTEST) Head bare r. Rx: C PLOTIVS RVFVS III VIR A A A F F around large S C. Apparently not a product of the official mint of Rome, to judge from its light weight and the three errors in the obverse legend. The same unofficial manufacturer was probably also responsible for Paris 512-513 and BM 156, which are also underweight and in similar style, and write VR for VIR in their reverse legend, though their obverse legend is correct.Hair softly struck.
