UNLISTED BUST TYPE [B1] AND OBVERSE LEGEND, HYBRID. Bust type and obv. legend not attested for Crispus (p. 380). However, Bruun mentions the same obv. type in note at the bottom of p. 380: "Mun [Munich] has [...] obv. IVL CRIS-PVS NOB C (B1)". Specimen might be regarded as an imitative hybrid of unlisted obv. variant and TICINUM 140. Note also that officina Q is not attested until TICINUM 167. Coin should be listed in footnotes before TICINUM 148.
