UNLISTED ISSUE. Similar to HERACLEA 76 except for altar at feet to l. instead of eagle with wreath in beek (cf. NICOMEDIA 71a-c and NICOMEDIA 72a-c). Minted after Maximinus' capture of Heraclea to the 1/72 libra weight-standard and now also attested for all three rulers. Coin should be listed before HERACLEA 76.
