RIC VI, CYZICUS [before 74], MAXIMINUS, UNLISTED OBVERSE LEGEND

OBVERSE	GALVALMAXIMINVSNOBC [GAL VAL MAXIMINVS NOB C]; head r., laur.
REVERSE	VIRTVTIE-XERCITVS [VIRTVTI EXERCITVS]; Mars advancing r. in military dress, r. holding spear, l. shield and trophy over shoulder. Γ in left field, three vertical dots in right field. MKV in exergue.
NOT IN RIC	UNLISTED OBVERSE LEGEND. Specimen similar to CYZICUS 74 except for obv. legend GAL VAL MAXIMINVS NOB C instead of GAL VAL MAXIMINVS P F AVG, which suggests that was minted for Maximinus as Caesar. It could be an engraver's error or evidence that this issue was started earlier and partially belongs to the Group IV. Further investigations needed. Coin should be listed before CYZICUS 74.
