Tacitus, 25 September 275 - June 276 A.D.
|Tacitus|, |Tacitus,| |25| |September| |275| |-| |June| |276| |A.D.|, The officina is an interesting notation of five, using U instead of the usual V or E. This notation only became common on Byzantine coins, at a much later date. RIC 163 also records officina six for the type, written in Latin, VI. MER-RIC lists this type as sixth officina (UI).
