NOT IN RIC

UNLISTED OBVERSE LEGEND. Not attested for this issue (p. 247). Listed in Bastien Lyon (294-316) (p. 211, no. 353).

Note, however, that according to Bastien Lyon (294-316) (p. 55 and footnote 1 on p. 210) coins with m.m. altar/PLC probably belong to the next issue altar|A-B/PLC and absence of officina letter should be regarded as a mint error. Then this coin could be regarded as LUGDUNUM 108b with worn officina letter. Otherwise, should be listed after LUGDUNUM 71.
