UNLISTED BUST TYPE - D2 l. Not attested for obv. legend 5b (p. 112). Note also CRISPV instead of CRISPVS in obv. legend. Could be an engraver's error but this coin may be also regarded as a good ancient imitation. Listed in Supplement to Cloke-Toone (second edition) (9.03.020.5) Should be listed in RIC after LONDON 235.
