Hi,

Strictly it is RIC 125, however one may assume that the C has been applied to account for the two bust types lested for RIC 125. That's the problem with secondary sources, you are sometimes a hostage to error or alteration. A and B etc tend to be rarely applied in the volume, one exception is where an unusual obverse legend is encountered, such as RIC 122a.

Regards,

Mauseus

RIC vol V is superseded by MIR 36 by Robert Göbl.

MIR 36 lists your coin as #30d.
