UNLISTED FOR RULER. RIC lists this issue only for Galerius Maximian (p. 510). Specimen similar to THESSALONICA [before 10] but note different variety of rev. legend break: VICTORIAE-SARMATICAE instead of VICTORI-AESA-RMATICAE. Such difference sometimes makes a separate entry in RIC. Coin should be listed before THESSALONICA 10.
