    What I would do is do a search in CNG archives, (research) and you will see better ones but it depends on what you want to pay, here is one better.....
    https://www.cngcoins.com/Coin.aspx?CoinID=284858 In case you haven't done it before just type in Nemausus crocodile.

    Just to give you a better idea also of dealer prices I paid about $200 for this one that is an earlier type like yours dated 9BC-3BC it's biggest problem is Augustus face of the flan. NMf52W3dH5c6Ts3Xr8TaCaD97Pifz4.jpg

    The scratches may be a bit of a distraction but it sure beats the heck out of the 'up-grade' I recently purchased. The details are quite sharp and I'd love to own it!!:)

    Mine's pretty beat up. But, the crocodile is a good boy.
