RIC VII, NICOMEDIA 115, CONSTANTINE II, [CORRECTION]

OBVERSE	CONSTANTINVSIVNNOBC [CONSTANTINVS IVN NOB C]; bust r., laur., cuir.
REVERSE	PRINCIPI•IVVENTVTIS [PRINCIPI • IVVENTVTIS]; Prince in military dress, stg. r., cloak displayed, holding transverse spear in r. hand and globe in l. N in exergue.
NOT IN RIC	[CORRECTION]. RIC gives rev. legend PRINCIPI-IVVENTVTIS but coin cited in RIC (Hirsch xii) has unbroken legend PRINCIPI • IVVENTVTIS, i.e. with dot, which is usually included in description (cf. NICOMEDIA 183-184, p. 632). Note also another error in RIC: Prince on reverse is described as holding spear in l. hand and globe in r. hand.

NOTES

AV fraction. Weight 2.30 g (probably half-solidus). From Hirsch auction xii (lot 675), November 1904 (cited in RIC).
