Notes: No this is not from London, but I believe that the unmarked, plain bust coinage of 296 was minted in Lugdunum for the specific purpose of circulating in Britain upon the invasion of Constantius. There are enough stylistic similarities to the LON coinage of 297 to make this worthy of inclusion in my London collection!Paul DiMarzioMar 26, 2005
