RIC VII, LYONS 191, CONSTANTINE II, [CORRECTION]

REVERSE	BEATATRAN-QVILLITAS [BEATA TRANQVILLITAS]; globe set on altar inscribed VO/TIS/XX in three lines; above, three stars. C in left field, R in right field. PLG in exergue.
NOT IN RIC	[CORRECTION]. The bust type of LYONS 191 is marked I1 l. (p. 134). However, the only attested variety is slightly different because Constantine's II l. hand is empty. For other varieties of busts I1 and I2 see CORRIGENDA, VOL. VII, p. 89-90. See also CORRIGENDA, VOL. VII, p. 134. Listed in Bastien Lyon (318-337) (p. 159, no. 135).
