NOT IN RIC	UNLISTED BUST TYPE - B4. Not attested for obv. legend 5a (p. 264). Note that RIC lists a single specimen with bust type B3 quoted after Dattari and, according to footnote 281 on p. 264, only reverse of this specimen is illustrated in Dattari's book. Therefore, there is a possibility of an error in description. Coin should be listed after ARLES 281.
