RIC VI, LONDINIUM 120, CONSTANTINE, [CORRECTION]

OBVERSE	IMPCONSTANTINVSPFINAVG [IMP CONSTANTINVS P F IN AVG]; bust r., laur., cuir.
REVERSE	SOLIINVIC-TOCOMITI [SOLI INVICTO COMITI]; Sol stg. l., chlamys falling from l. shoulder, r. raised, l. holding up globe. T in left field, F in right field. PLN in exergue.
NOT IN RIC	[CORRECTION]. RIC lists this type with obv. legend IMP CONSTANTINVS PI IN AVG and mentions that Bastien reads this legend as IMP CONSTANTINVS P F IN AVG. Cloke-Toone agrees with Bastien and gives "P F in obv. legend (6.02.009). Listed in Bastien-Huvelin (p. 94, no. 1131) with obv. legend ...P F IN AVG. However, on some specimens "F" may resemble distorted I. There is quite similar case with LONDINIUM 146b (Roma Numismatics eSale 69, lot 1187, 4.38 g, 22 mm). RIC gives obv. legend IMP MAXIMINVS P F AVG but mentions also example with ...P I AVG (p. 135 and footnote 2).
