<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Volodya, post: 2505958, member: 19615&quot;]Not <i>just </i>known from a single pair of dies. Ho-hum, lol! It&#039;s more amazing than <i>that</i>. As far as anyone knew (other than the owner of this piece, obviously, and anyone they let in on the secret) the only two extant examples of the type were in public collections, in Bologna and in the Capitoline Museum in Rome. (I have about a million pics of the latter specimen, taken through the glass. I&#039;ve attached one here.) The type is missing in Paris, missing in London, missing in Berlin, missing in the ANS, missing in Haeberlin and every other private collection any of us knew about... except, obviously, one anonymous collection. This example wasn&#039;t &quot;supposed&quot; to exist.</p><p><br /></p><p>There are a couple of RR denarii even more rare, known in just a single example.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]532384[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
