RIC VII, ARLES [before 286], CONSTANTINE I, UNLISTED MINTMARK [P•AR]

OBVERSE	CONSTAN-TINVSAVG [CONSTANTINVS AVG]; head r., laur.
REVERSE	VIRTV-SAVGG [VIRTVS AVGG]; gateway with wide open doors of varying design, four turrets, varying number of stone layers, star above. P•AR in exergue.
NOT IN RIC	UNLISTED MINTMARK. Mintmark similar to ARLES 264-279 except for dot instead of star (p. 263-264). However, note that according to RIC, Virtus Augg reverse was not introduced in Arles till the next issue [ARLES 291] (p. 265). Specimen may be regarded as an ancient imitation. Otherwise, should be listed before ARLES 286.
