Small c above G of
GETAC not mentioned. But you can it see on 8.20.1.1, 8.20.20.1 and 8.20.32.1 too. At
AMNG 1623 (= 8.20.32.1)
Pick writes: "The small naturally belongs to KAIC." Therefore all named coins should be
corrected.
Pick writes "
in ex.
PROC I". But here and on the depicted coin in
HrHJ (2018) the ex. seems to be outside the
flan.
HrHJ (2018) does know of only 1 ex. of this
type. So it was called R10. Now this 2nd ex. turned up and the
rarity has to be
reduced to R9.
