RIC VI, SISCIA [after 94], MAXIMIAN HERCULIUS, UNLISTED ISSUE [VIRTVS AVGG]

OBVERSE	MAXIMIA-NVSAVG [MAXIMIANVS AVG]; bust r., laur., cuir.
REVERSE	VI-RTV-SAVGG [VIRTVS AVGG]; Emperor galloping r., spearing fallen enemy.
NOT IN RIC	UNLISTED ISSUE. Specimen probably belongs to the group of rare unmarked fractions from c. 293-295 (p. 355-357), or to the later group from c. 305 (p. 365-366). In both cases the reader should keep in mind that "the dating and even the attribution of these very rare coins is problematical" (footnote 2 on p. 356) and that all these fractions are "very badly documented" (p. 337). Not listed in King. Should be listed in RIC after SISCIA 94.
