UNLISTED OBVERSE LEGEND - 5b. Obv. legend 5b is attested in RIC, but only for LONDON 252 which is apparently an ancient imitation. See CORRIGENDA, VOL. VII, p. 113. Note, however, that this type also may be regarded as an ancient imitation. Listed in Cloke-Toone (9.06.021). Should be listed in RIC after LONDON 251.
