      both RIC 502a and 502b. Number 502a is the laureate bust right,
   cuirassed and 502b is the laureate head right type. The cuirassed bust
   variant is much scarcer. This, like the 502a example, is the cuirassed
   variant but wasn't noted by Mattingly and Sydenham. From this, we adduce this must be even scarcer than 502a.
