This example is evidence of a coin most probably struck in Rome for export to Caesarea. A 6 o'clock die axis, indicates the fact that this coin was struck in Rome for export to the provinces. Only 10 recorded examples of this coin in the major publications, Metcalf reporting only three. Much of the original 'find' patina remains on this coin.
