REVERSE	SALVSREI-PVBLICAE [SALVS REIPVBLICAE]; empress stg. facing, looking l.; in her arms two children. •Q*AR in exergue.
NOT IN RIC	UNLISTED ISSUE. Coin similar to unlisted ARLES [before 285] except for dot at the beginning of the m.m., instead of at the end. Note also dot in obv. legend. The existence of other specimens with the same m.m. proves that it is unlikely an engraver's error. Additionally, in footnote 257 on p. 262 Bruun mentions one more specimen from Milan (ex Gerin Collection) "with •S*AR". Not listed in Ferrando. Should be listed in RIC after ARLES 263.
