RIC VI, SISCIA [after 60b], MAXIMIAN HERCULIUS, REVERSE LEGEND VARIETY

  

OBVERSE

MAXIMIA-NVSAVG [MAXIMIANVS AVG]; head r., laur.

REVERSE

VIRTV-SMILITVM [VIRTVS MILITVM]; the four princes sacrificing over tripod before archway in six-turreted enclosure. *SIS in exergue.

NOT IN RIC

REVERSE LEGEND VARIETY. Coin similar to SISCIA 60b except for unlisted reverse legend break: VIRTV-SMILITVM instead of VIRTVS-MILITVM. It is unclear if, in the case of this issue, unlisted rev. break makes a new entry. There are two reverse legend breaks attested for SISCIA 60a; but note also SISCIA 61 and SISCIA 62 (p. 461), where reverse legend break is the only difference. Coin could be listed after SISCIA 60b.
