VITELLIUS, A.D. 69. AV Aureus (7.01 gms), Rome Mint. NGC Ch F, Strike: 5/5 Surface: 5/5.
RIC-82; Cali-574. Obverse: Laureate bust right; Reverse: SPQB/OB/CS within wreath. A VERY RARE type, arising from the year of the four emperors, this example delivers much charm despite some evidence of handling and circulation. The wear is even across the high points of the design with no faults seen. A handsome example that would serve any collector of Aurei well looking to cross Vitellius off their list.
Estimate: $7000 - $10000
