RIC VI, ALEXANDRIA 9b, MAXIMIAN HERCULIUS, UNLISTED OFFICINA B [right field], ENGRAVER'S ERROR

   

OBVERSE

MAXIMI-ANVSAVG [MAXIMIANVS AVG]; head r., laur.

REVERSE

VIRTVS-MILITAM [VIRTVS MILITAM (sic!)]; three-turreted camp-gate, open; no doors. B in right field. ALE in exergue.

NOT IN RIC

UNLISTED OFFICINA - B in right field. Erroneously listed in RIC (cited specimen has actually officina A). Probably an engraver's error in rev. legend: MILITAM instead of MILITVM. Not listed in Gautier Argent (294-312). Note, however, that the attribution is uncertain and this coin may be regarded as an ancient imitation.
