[QUOTE="VD76, post: 7684636, member: 107503"]:) No . This is not CCS 14 . There are no X - B / B - K . By the way , I think that CCS 2 does not exist . I believe that Porteous wrongly identified Virgin Orans as the bust of Christ because there are just a few very worn examples that have been known . Later when more coins in better condition been found it became obvious that on the obverse is Virgin Orans . And Malloy put in his book as new type CCS 14 . Here is my example. [ATTACH=full]1319687[/ATTACH] Back to the coin in question . I did find another two examples , but still don’t know what it is :) This is what I won last week ( I paid to much :) ) 22mm / 4 gr [ATTACH=full]1319688[/ATTACH] And another example ( not my) 20mm / 3.35 gr [ATTACH=full]1319689[/ATTACH] Third example overstruck on follis of Baldwin II CCS 11 ( my coin ) 3.5 gr [ATTACH=full]1319691[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
