NGC AU, Strike 4/5 Surface 4/5 *Fine Style. From the Benito Collection. Ex CNG 503, lot #380. RIC-887. Obverse: Radiate head right; Reverse: Felicitas standing left, holding caduceus and cornucopia. This spectacular emerald-green specimen that has stood the text of time in near perfect condition. In our opinion this is among the FINEST KNOWN of the type. The portrait of Vespasian is hyper-realistic and pops in high relief when rotating the coin. Close examination of this specimen is reccomended to appreciate it's true beauty. This is an unparalleled example that will attract the most advanced bidders.
