REVERSE	PRINCIPIIV-V-ENTVTIS [PRINCIPI IVVENTVTIS]; Prince laur., in military dress, stg. r., cloak spread, r. holding transverse spear, l. globe. PR in exergue.
NOT IN RIC	REVERSE LEGEND VARIETY. Specimen similar to ROMA 284 except for different rev. legend breaks (V-V-E instead of I-V). ROMA 284 is listed in Depeyrot (p. 89, no. 17/6) also only with I-V rev. legend break. For gold issues different rev. legend break is sometimes listed in RIC under a separate number (cf. RIC VI TREVERI 802 and 807). In that case, this coin could be listed in RIC after ROMA 284. See also: ROMA [after 284], MAXIMINUS, UNLISTED FOR RULER
