[CORRECTION]. RIC lists ROMA 186 with obv. legend 1b (IMP MAXENTIVS P F AVG). Actually, only somehow similar type is attested: with obv. legend 1c (MAXENTIVS P F AVG) and rev. legend PRINCIPI IMPERII ROMANI (instead of PRINCIPI IMPERII given in RIC).

Listed in Drost (p. 302, no. 48) with this correction.
