Very nice Doucet, liking these coins a lot atm  It does indeed have a style thats slightly different, great detail left on the cornucopia. I think it may be from Rome and not Ticinum though?

Your absolutely right bobbyhelmet. I was misled by the dealers info on the flip and did't do my homework.  Would this be RIC VI Rome 95a?
