[QUOTE="seth77, post: 2212392, member: 56653"]What makes the OP coin rare is not just the bust type - as I said that bust type is very common with VIRTVS EXERCIT reverse, but rather the pairing of that bust with the VOT in wreath type. Even if the pairing was a mistake that might have happened by accident - although apparently it was a repeated mistake - there are now 5 instead of 3 as I last counted in early in 2014: [url]http://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=search&cat=0&pos=10[/url] [url]http://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=search&cat=0&pos=14[/url] [url]http://www.forumancientcoins.com/gallery/displayimage.php?album=search&cat=0&pos=20[/url] [url]http://www.vcoins.com/en/stores/london_ancient_coins/89/product/crispus_caesar_317326_ad__follis_ticinum_mint/441275/Default.aspx[/url][/QUOTE]
