But it is a rare type.
As such it gets much benefit on grading. Definitely better than an F.

Well firstly it honors Nero Claudius Drusus who you just don't often see and secondly it is very rarely seen !
The two common ones ( Spes and OB CIVES SERVATOS ) make up 99% of the Claudius sestertii being offered for sale.
