BITHYNIA, Heraclaea Pontica(?). Trajan. AD 98-117. Æ (15mm, 2.66 g, 7h). AYT K NE[P TPAIA]NOC API CE, laureate head right / Cornucopia on globe. RPC III 6551C (this coin). Dark brown patina, deposits, cleaning scratches. Good Fine. Unique.

Ex Classical Numismatic Group Electronic Auction 566 (17 July 2024), lot 303.

RPC lists four specimens of RPC 6551 and one of the other 6551 sub varieties, but lists both region and mint as uncertain and notes that it is probably Bithynian in origin. The obverse legend on 6551A is only used at Heraclaea Pontica, this coin is slightly different than the other known types, but is similar enough to place it in Bithynia.
