UNLISTED BUST TYPE - B4. Not attested for obv. legend 1 (p. 218). For similar type cf. TRIER 538. Note that wreath does not look like ordinary laurel wreath but is also distincly different from ordinary rossete-diadem on TRIER 549. For types of rosette-diadem see also footnotes 544 and 555. Coin should be listed after TRIER 549.
