Scarce and pictorially interesting reverse type with seated Salvs feeding serpent. Beautiful example with almost full silvering and lovely golden patina.
This coin is part of the scarce first phase of Ticinum’s 6th emission (according to Pink’s emission classification) with greek numerals of officinae not accompanied by the XXI monetary reform mark. In the much more common and abundant second phase of 6th emission the greek numerals were followed by the XXI mark in the exergue.
