Specimen similar to SIRMIUM 40 (VL Nummus 12, lot 172, 4.48 g)) except for different rev. legend breaks: P-IIVVE-N instead of I-IVVEN-T which sometimes makes for gold and silver coins a separate number in RIC VII (cf. RIC VII TRIER 27-31 or RIC VII TRIER 575 and 576). Coin should be listed after SIRMIUM 40.
