NOT IN RIC	UNLISTED OBVERSE LEGEND. RIC lists for this issue only shorter obv. legend: CONSTANTINVS AVG (without MAX) (p. 270). However, Bruun in footnote 341 on p. 270 mentions that "A. Alföldi (NaH 191) records a coin of this m.m. with the obv. legend CONSTANTINVS MAX AVG. His reference to Maurice suggests that he has recorded the m.m. wrongly". Listed in FMRL I (p. 254, no. 860); Ermsdorf hoard. Listed in Ferrando (p. 127, no. 514). Should be listed before ARLES 341.
