Ex Cayón (12 December 2015), lot 50.

Jenkins lists the source of this coin as “London,” which typically refers to the BM collection, but this coin is not an electrotype, nor is it listed/illustrated on the BM website. It is possible that Jenkins saw the piece in a London collection, and erroneously recorded it as a BM coin.
