Watch List notes:

Lot of Three Animal Antoniniani of Gallienus, Rare Bust Varieties, One Unpublished. (0h). . All mint of Rome, c. 267-8 AD. (1) 2.66g, 5h. Obv: GALLIENVS AVG Bust radiate, draped, cuirassed left, seen from back, holding spear pointed upwards below chin and shield decorated with Medusa head by left shoulder. Rx: IOVI CONS AVG Goat-stag mixture walking left, S (=officina 6) in exergue. A rare and elaborate left-facing military bust, Göbl's bust r, unknown to him in combination with this reverse type, his 730, so apparently a unique new variety. (2) 2.64g, 1h. Obv: GALLIENVS AVG Bust radiate, draped, cuirassed right, one wreath tie overlaps neck. Rx: APOLLINI CON[S] AVG Centaur walking right about to shoot arrow from bow, Z (=officina 7) in exergue. Normanby Hoard pl. 10, 342 (same obv. die) = Göbl pl. 57, 735w (bust misclassified as cuirassed only rather than draped and cuirassed); not in Cunetio hoard, RIC, or Cohen with this bust type. Appparently only the second recorded specimen with this bust type, and from the same obverse die as the first specimen, which was part of the Normanby hoard. (3) 2.99g, 11h. Obv: G[ALLIEN]VS AVG Bust radiate, cuirassed right, seen from front, fold of cloak on front shoulder. Rx: DIANAE CONS AVG Gazelle standing right, XI (=officina 11) in exergue. Göbl 747u (1 spec.), RIC 181, Cohen 164. Very rare with bust cuirassed instead of the standard "Head radiate right". Göbl knew only one such specimen, whose source he unfortunately misquotes. There may have been another example in Cunetio 1402, not illustrated, if the bust description there is erroneous ("draped and cuirassed, seen from front"). VF to Fine
