[QUOTE="lrbguy, post: 2942690, member: 88829"]Thanks for looking and for the kind comments everyone. I suspect some of these will pop up from time to time. The [I]BMCRE[/I] listings for Vitellius contain this notation between the Group I and Group II listings (p369): "Hybrids between Groups I and II. [I]Obv.[/I] Bare head (I). GERMAN IMP.TR.P * (II) Not in B.M." with the footnote, " * The following [I]rev.[/I] occurs with this [I]obv.[/I] : (a) XV VIR SACR.FAC." I believe this note applies to my coin. There is no note or comment indicating whether these hybrids are proper for the issue or unauthorized, but normally hybrids are given separate listings after the main sections. This intrusion on the early listings is unusual. I went back to the original auction listing, and in their attribution they reference RICA[SIZE=1]2[/SIZE] 86 (the 2 is superscript referring to the revised edition I believe). I do not have the revised edition of RIC I. That's about all I can tell you.[/QUOTE]
