[I]Hello, I was able to track down the catalog you were referencing, and unfortunately the catalog does not illuminate to much information other than what you already have on the piece. The lot description merely states the three coins are attributed to the moneyer C. Vibius Varus, each of the three coins in the lot are described in brief, with the coin you purchased mentioned as: Denarius. Bust of Minerva right; Reverse: Hercules standing left. Syd-1140, RARE. Choice Very Fine. The group of three coins are not imaged in their catalog, and the prices realized for the group was $75. I hope this helps, also the lot was Number 624 in the catalog.
