MINTMARK VARIETY. RIC enumerates six sub-issues for ROME 264-269. See CORRIGENDA, VOL. VII, p. 325. However, variety with three vertical dots in the arch of the camp gate is not listed (the centering dot is visible over the arch). Note also that further investigations are needed to identify these sub-issues.
