Does anyone have access to Maurice's Numismatique Consantinienne, and might be able to copy a plate photo (cell phone photo, perhaps) for me?
The coin I am interested in is Volume I Plate XXII # 8 (mentioned on p.383). It's a Consecratio solidus for Constantius I from Trier.
Thanks to anyone who may be able to help!

Victor Clark has kindly provided a picture of the plate.

In principle you find this book online at hathitrust: https://catalog.hathitrust.org/Record/001597013
Plate XXII can be seen here: https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=uc1.b3364295&view=image&seq=751
(outside the US it might not work)

Thanks, Altamura !
It's great to be able to browse through the plates.
I'm still waiting (without holding my breath) for the BnF to get the rest of their collection online, but in the meantime Maurice's plates do offer a couple of glimpses, such as the reverse of this Licinius II Felicia Tempora (obverse picture from WikiMedia) in glorious condition, and this unusual Maxentius Marti Comiti Avg N (RIC 218) which reverse I've never seen before. One of the British Museum's Liberator Orbis (Constantine type, unlisted in RIC) specimens is there too.
