VESPASIAN, A.D. 69-79. AV Aureus (7.10 gms), Lugdunum Mint, ca. A.D. 70. NGC Ch F, Strike: 4/5 Surface: 4/5.
RIC-1108; Calico-611. Obverse: Laureate head right; Reverse: Neptune standing left, with foot on prow, holding dolphin and trident. Seeing quite a bit of handling and usage in commerce, this example nevertheless retains commendable details from a bold strike. Being problem free, it presents an opportunity for a more affordable example of Roman gold from Lugdunum, a RARE chance in today's market.

Estimate: $1500 - $3000
