BITHYNIA, Heraclaea Pontica. Trajan. AD 98-117. Æ (14mm, 2.59 g, 6h). Laureate head right / Cornucopia on globe. RPC III 6551E (this coin). Red-brown surfaces, deposits, roughness. Near VF. Unique obverse legend variety, only this coin recorded in RPC.

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.
