[CORRECTION], OFFICINA B. Misprint in RIC. Bust type is marked E8 (bust with rosette-diadem, dr., cuir.) instead of E5 (head with rosette-diadem, looking upwards). RIC lists for CONSTANTINOPLE 126 officinae B and Δ (p. 587). Note that Bruun apparently mixes two separate emissions with m.m. CONSA. Emission 6 (335-336) in Ramskold - Constantinople silver.
