The engraving of the symbols is poor, which indicates it is a very late issue – just as the Empire collapsed. It looks like the very common type 575, but if so, there should be a pair of taurines under the ‘flag’, and I see no trace of them. Maybe it is so badly engraved the guy just missed them off?
