Ex Roger Liles Collection (Classical Numismatic Group 94, 18 September 2013), lot 236.
In his article on corrections to Price, C. Hersh notes that Price 1933 should read that the spearhead is in the outer right field (), rather than simply ‘right field’ () as Price notes. The illustration in Price confirms this reading.
