EFLargeCents Pillar of the Community United States 1304 Posts	Posted 01/17/2017 10:28 am I have been unable to find the RIC number for this one. Closest one on Wildwinds is 812b (slightly different reverse legend). Any thoughts? It is an Ae As of Septimius Severus. A nice one at that. Report this Post to the Staff

tenbobbit Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 701 Posts	Posted 01/17/2017 12:14 pm I hope this will help EF, on ac.search I found your coin but with a radiate bust, everything else is the same including the reverse legend of XVIII. I tried to link it but it wouldn't work for me, the coin was sold at a French auction and all the details were in French. It gave its RIC listing as RIC 803. The auction - CGB.fr.MONNAIES 50. lot 29. Sorry I couldn't get the link to work, hope this helps in some way. Report this Post to the Staff
EFLargeCents Pillar of the Community United States 1304 Posts	Posted 01/17/2017 12:33 pm Thanks tenbobbit. My guess if it is in RIC that it is somewhere around RIC 800-815. Report this Post to the Staff
tenbobbit Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 701 Posts	Posted 01/17/2017 1:06 pm I cant find another example anywhere EF which doesn't help but if the Radiate bust issue is a good marker then you have got yourself a nice rare coin there Very nice find and extremely nice coin Hopefully someone will fill in the gaps.

EFLargeCents Pillar of the Community United States 1304 Posts	Posted 01/18/2017 08:03 am That's the one! Thanks imperator! Though BRIT is not in the obverse legend as stated in the description, on that coin or mine. I did buy this one because I suspect it is associated with the time period Severus was in Britannia.
