<p>[QUOTE="Trebellianus, post: 3867475, member: 91569"]I can't claim any particular knowledge on this point unfortunately. Curtis Clay had it in-hand in the early 1990s: <a href="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/board/index.php?topic=8869.msg64615#msg64615" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/board/index.php?topic=8869.msg64615#msg64615" rel="nofollow">he wrote briefly about it here</a>. The related Harlan J. Berk catalogue <a href="https://archive.org/details/harlanjberkltd940094harl" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://archive.org/details/harlanjberkltd940094harl" rel="nofollow">is online here</a>: it cites a die match to the now-lost Paris specimen, and states the Trajan side is a die match for a final-period Trajan obverse, if I read it correctly. Mattingly considered the type to be genuine, though only on the basis of the British Museums's "excellent impression" of the Paris coin.
