UNLISTED OBVERSE LEGEND AND BUST TYPE. RIC lists for this issue only obv. legend CRISPVS NOB CAESAR and bust type B4 (p. 432). If the pellet in exergue is worn out and this coin actually belongs to the next issue [ASIS], it is still unlisted for officina, because for SISCIA 64 only officina B is attested (p. 433). Coin should be listed before SISCIA 57.
