AE. 3.45 g. 21.00 mm. RRR. Extremely rare. Same type of the Litra (CNS II 151), but of very reduced weight and flan, possibly an Hemilitron (the weight is compatible with an half Litra); we think it is not only an occasional example of very light Litra but an unpublished fraction of the same issue.
