Notes:
*** UNLISTED - UNIQUE - NEW R5 !
*** Only 1 (one) Ancient Roman coin with a PAX EQVITVM (PAX E......) Reverse Legend is known in existence:  RIC V Postumus 381 (VERY RARE) - NO other "known" Ancient Roman coins with a Reverse Legend starting with "PAX E" are known to exist !
* While the Legend and Image on the Reverse of this coin are a Perfect Match for RIC V Postumus 381 (VERY RARE), the problem and  reality is that our coin's Obverse attributes are EXTREMELY DIFFERENT:
- The "Entire" Bust does NOT look like a typical RIC V Postumus 381 (VERY RARE) - Smaller and Thinner. Face is NOT the same. Beard is NOT the same. Clothing is NOT the same.
*** Interesting thing about this particular coin.....Even though only 1 (one) Ancient Roman coin is known to exist with a PAX EQVITVM Reverse Legend (Postumus).....We are 99.99999% convinced that the Bust on the Obverse of this coin is GALLIENUS ! - This would force the Obverse Legend to be IMP GALLIENVS P F AVG !
*** How's that for a UNIQUE, ONE OF A KIND (R5) COIN !!!???
