Constantine II CLARITAS REIPVBLICAE from Ticinum

RIC only lists workshop P and T for this coin and both are r5. However, the description states that Sol is advancing right; though this must be an error in RIC as Sol is always advancing left like this example.

this example just sold for EUR 253.00
