RIC VI, ANTIOCHIA [before 37a], MAXIMIAN HERCULIUS, UNLISTED ISSUE [IRREGULAR COIN]

OBVERSE	MAXIMI-ANVSPAVG [MAXIMIANVS P AVG]; head r., laur.
REVERSE	VIRTVS-MILITVM [VIRTVS MILITVM]; camp-gate, three turrets, no doors. ANTH in exergue.
NOT IN RIC	UNLISTED ISSUE. Similar to ANTIOCHIA 37a-43b but m.m. ANTH is not attested, as is also the obv. legend MAXIMIANVS P AVG. Note, however, crude style and very light weight, which indicates that this coin is in fact an ancient imitation. Could be mentioned in RIC before ANTIOCHIA 37a.
