(Along with Trier.) RIC VIII Amiens 48 (haven&#039;t noticed any die matches, but very similar to ANS&#039; second example &amp; the Fitzwilliam specs: <a href="https://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.8.amb.48" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.8.amb.48" rel="nofollow">https://numismatics.org/ocre/id/ric.8.amb.48</a>)</p><p><br /></p><p>At $9, and just advertised as a &quot;Constantius II Fallen Horseman,&quot; I&#039;m sure the seller was unaware of the significance of the &quot;AMB&quot; in the exergue, which makes it quite a desirable and rare (no matter what RIC says) specimen.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
