UNLISTED FOR RULER. RIC lists this issue only for Galerius Maximian and Licinius. But cf. footnote 5 on p. 631: "Herculius is given an example of off. Є by G. 28, not yet verified" [Gerin Catalogue, p. 37, listed with ANT in m.m.]. Cf. also ANTIOCHIA 112c with different m.m. Coin should be listed after ANTIOCHIA 106b.
