NOT IN RIC

UNLISTED FOR RULER. RIC lists this issue only for Maximinus.

General note from p. 527: "Lighter than the last aes issue, but heavier than the next, this issue, with renewed 'simple' mark, shows a change of type to the Licinian Iovi Conservatori, introduced at Thessalonica at the same time. So far only coins for Maximinus have been authenticated, and these are scarce: coinage for Licinius and Constantine may remain to be found. Date, c. 311". Note, however, that this issue was minted before Galerius' death, so it belongs to the previous Group.

Listed in Tillack - Heraclea (p. 253, no. 13). Coin should be listed after HERACLEA 64.
