[QUOTE="Orfew, post: 3179213, member: 74968"]I saw this in the Numismatik Naumann auction catalogue and knew I wanted it. It is listed in RIC II Part one as R3, one example known. This is not the RIC plate coin but it is (no surprise) a double die match to that coin. My assumption is that this is the second known of its type.
