UNLISTED FOR RULER. RIC lists this issue only for Constantine II and Constantius II; plus Urbs Roma (p. 140). Attribution uncertain. Note, however, that emission with this m.m. (LYONS 268-270) is questionable and all these coins may be regarded as ancient imitations. Intentionally omitted in Bastien Lyon (318-337) (footnote 1 on p. 184). Otherwise, should be listed before LYONS 268.
