Sold for $351. This amount does not include the buyer’s fee.

CLAUDIUS. 41-54 AD. Æ Sestertius (37mm, 28.63 gm). Rome mint. Laureate head right / Arch of Nero Claudius Drusus. RIC I 98; von Kaenel -(V-/R167; an unlisted die combination); BMCRE 121-122; Cohen 48. Near VF, dark green and brown patina, fields smoothed, obverse legend tooled.

From the Rudolf Berk Collection.

The obverse legend is curiously spaced and IMP at the end of the legend appears to have been added. It's possible this was originally an example of RIC 114 with the end of the legend weakly struck.
