MINTMARK VARIETY. Specimen similar to NICOMEDIA 69b except for officina letter in left field instead of right. General note from p. 551: "Iovi Conservatori and Virtuti Exercitus both appear for Licinius and Maximinus, emissions for the former being the more scarce: coinage for Constantine is extremely rare. [...] Date, c. 311". See also CORRIGENDA, VOL. VI, p. 566.
