This one looks tooled also. Interesting series though.
As I don't collect anymore and I'm no longer watching the auctions, I'd like to ask how much did it sell for?

Maximinus II, Antioch, decorated shield. Here's another example I just noticed on ebay Lanz ending 04/29/19. Current bid is 856 euros. I'm not bidding. It is a cool coin.
