RIC-25 recorded this coin only in two unique specimens from officinae and E respectively, but since 1966 quite a few additional specimens have emerged. Lech Stępniewski, for example, records 1, 6, and 4 specimens respectively for the missing officinae A, B, and , on his website Not in RIC, hosted by Forvm Ancient Coins. Nevertheless a scarce coin, valued quite highly by Cohen (10 francs).. Fine+
