It looks like Göbl n° 1180 dd2, pictured Tafel 92, a coin from the mint of Milan.

Hi.

I agree with Amictus. One thing struck me. I wonder if Goebl placed this coin in the right place in the corpus of Milan coins. I can understand why he put it with the other Salonina Felix reverse but the lettering style, particularly III for N is a characteristic early style.

Regards,

As it is done with n° 1590 in the Cunetio hoard ?  But Salonina’s portrait fits well with Gallienus’ smaller and thinner busts.

Sorry dears
I m lost

What S the correct reference for this coin? Is it rare? The RIC 65 is not correct reference, and searching in all sites I know, always show cupid, not infant and P in reverse, can be considered a variant of 65 or a not listed on RIC? Sorry but I don't know other references for this coin

In Cunetio 1590 and Göbl n° 1180 dd2, Venus is holding a infant or cupid?
This coin is cleary a infant, not cupid

The “F” in FELIX looks like an “A.”
