RIC VII, ARLES [after 263], CONSTANTINE I, UNLISTED MINTMARK [SARMATIA DEVICTA], BUST B5

OBVERSE	CONSTAN•-TINVSAVG [CONSTAN•TINVS (sic!) AVG]; bust r., laur., cuir.
REVERSE	SARMATIA-DEVICTA [SARMATIA DEVICTA]; Victory advancing r., holding trophy and branch and spurning captive on ground to r. •S*AR in exergue.
NOT IN RIC	UNLISTED MINTMARK. Coin similar to ARLES 258 except for dot in m.m. The presence of other specimens with the same m.m. proves that it is unlikely an engraver's error. Additionally, in footnote 257 on p. 262 Bruun mentions one more specimen from Milan (ex Gerin Collection) "with •S*AR". Note also dot in obv. legend and compare it with ARLES 280, CONSTANTINE I, OBVERSE LEGEND VARIETY. Coin should be listed after ARLES 263.
