Received this coin yesterday, I had it posted in the grading forum. There is what I would call an extra berry in the laurel wreath at the top of the wreath between the forehead and the top leaves just below the I in DEI. There a few other things as well die cracks and dots on the reverse as well.

1 extra berry boosts the price ten cents. I need to start paying more atention to these things!

Not sure if it boosts the price, just showing what may be a possible new variety and seeing if some other collectors have come accross one before.

Here's a photo of a coin struck with the same obverse die but earlier in the die's life. Die cracks match, and I think the one crack may have had something to do with your extra bead.

Nice coin, funny the reverse does not match. Any idea on how many dies where used for these coins? Just noticed the fin between the head and T in Gratia this was posted recently
