<p>[QUOTE="Orange Julius, post: 8343463, member: 77226"]Here’s a good example of a rarity that very very very few people would care about. The below coin is an unknown, unpublished variant of known coins with Providentia, a transverse scepter and globe. The known variants have the legend of either PROVID AVG or PROVIDEN AVG… but my coin (hold onto your hats here) has the full PROVIDENTIA AVG for the reverse legend. I’ve been looking for other examples of this coin for years and have yet to find a single example. However, as rare as it is… I’d probably struggle to get more than $10 for it on eBay. I like it, but it is an ugly coin.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1479797[/ATTACH]</p><p>Gallienus - PROVIDENTIA [AVG] </p><p><br /></p><p>I posted about this one on FORVM awhile back… here’s the thread if interested: <a href="https://www.forumancientcoins.com/board/index.php?topic=119541.msg723838#msg723838" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.forumancientcoins.com/board/index.php?topic=119541.msg723838#msg723838" rel="nofollow">https://www.forumancientcoins.com/board/index.php?topic=119541.msg723838#msg723838</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
