echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 01/27/2012 6:33 pm I believe the reverse is Mars standing left holding a spear and branch. Wish ther was more of the reverse legend,it could be MARTI PACIFERO or MARTI PACIF. The closest RIC# I found was volume I, #72. Report this Post to the Staff

echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 01/27/2012 6:45 pm Doug, I believe your right. I didn't associate those lines as a V. So that would make it RIC 111. Guess I'm wrong again. Report this Post to the Staff
jessvc1 Pillar of the Community United States 2596 Posts	Posted 01/27/2012 6:49 pm could that be a faint Epsilon in right field to the right of the midsection on the reverse Report this Post to the Staff
echizento Moderator United States 23731 Posts	Posted 01/27/2012 7:23 pm If it is RIC 111, it could be either B or gamma. Report this Post to the Staff
