RIC VI, CYZICUS 16b, MAXIMIAN HERCULIUS, UNLISTED MINTMARK, TOOLING?

OBVERSE	IMPCMAMAXIMIANVSPFAVG [IMP C M A MAXIMIANVS P F AVG]; bust r., rad., dr., cuir.
REVERSE	CONCORDIAMI-LITVM [CONCORDIA MILITVM]; prince stg. r. in military dress receiving small Victory on globe from Jupiter stg. l., leaning on sceptre. K in middle field. ASI in exergue.
NOT IN RIC	UNLISTED MINTMARK. Specimen similar to CYZICUS 16b except for K with no officina letter in middle field and ASI in exergue. Especially these letters in exergue seem nonsensical. Extremely confused engraver? Or maybe the effect of modern tooling. Note than flan is very big but the weight given by seller is only 2.41 g.
