    @ancient coin hunter - interesting article. I have a couple of left facing portraits. Firstly :

    upload_2021-5-19_7-0-2.png
    GALLIENVS P F AVG, radiate and cuirassed bust left, holding spear across right shoulder and shield on left arm
    FIDES MILITVM, eagle standing left on globe between two standards, head right.
    RIC 15; RSC 251


    The second is more unusual in style and lovely in hand, but
    difficult to photograph

    G-ALLIENVS AVG. Bust with helmet and staff, drawn spear and shield in back view left.
    RV / PAX AVGVSTI / S. Victory with branch and sceptre advancing left
    RSC 767. RIC 502
