RIC VI, TICINUM [after 42b], GALERIUS MAXIMIAN, UNLISTED OBVERSE LEGEND, HYBRID

  

OBVERSE

MAXIMIANVSNOBILCAES [MAXIMIANVS NOBIL CAES]; bust r., rad., cuir.

REVERSE

VOT/•/XX above S in wreath.

NOT IN RIC

UNLISTED OBVERSE LEGEND. Not attested for this issue. But cf. footnote 2 on p. 285: "Oxford has an anomalous coin with Maximianus Nobil Caes, bust (C), Vot XX S, and Vienna another with Fl Val Constantius Nob C, bust (B), Vot XX T". The specimen in question probably belongs to this anomalous group. Note that all three coins should be regarded as hybrids, because for Caesars only VOT/•/X is expected. Coin could be noted after TICINUM 42b.
