The reason for including this coin here and not amongst the other issues from the 'S P Q R Group' lies in its obverse type, which connects three distinct groups together: firstly, the 'SIGNA P R Group' (see lot 1135 above), secondly, the 'S P Q R Group' (the present coin), and thirdly, the Mars VLTOR-reverse (see lots 1137-1139 below).
