NOT IN RIC

UNLISTED FOR RULER, ENGRAVER'S ERROR. RIC lists this type only for Licinius I (p. 401). Note unusual m.m. without officina letter, which was in use on the gold and silver coinage at Aquileia at this time, but not on bronze. Looks like an engraver's error, but this coin is probably a modern FORGERY. Otherwise, should be listed before AQUILEIA 63.
