RIC VII, LONDON 81, CONSTANTINE I, [CORRECTION]

OBVERSE	CONSTANTINVSPAVG [CONSTANTINVS P AVG]; bust l., laur., wearing trabea.
REVERSE	SOLIINVIC-TOCOMITI [SOLI INVICTO COMITI]; Sol stg. l. in quadriga, seen from front, raising r. hand, globe and whip in l. S in left field, P in right field. MSL in exergue.
NOT IN RIC	[CORRECTION]. Note that LONDON 81 and LONDON 84 are in fact identical except for letters S|P in fields which are absent on LONDON 84. Bust type in both cases is K1 l. LONDON 84 seems to be significantly rarer, so the omission of letters in fields may be regarded as an engraver's error. See also CORRIGENDA, VOL. VII, p. 100-102 and CORRIGENDA, VOL. VII, p. 102. Listed in Collezione Sabetta (p. 44, no. 17; bust described as draped and cuirassed). Listed in Cloke-Toone together with LONDON 84 (8.07.030). See also: LONDON 84, CONSTANTINE I, [CORRECTION]
