Procopius REPARATIO FEL TEMP from Constantinople
« on: February 13, 2014, 02:40:28 PM »
This issue is not noted in RIC for officina S (digamma) but this reverse type is recorded from all the other workshops A- Z, so it was to be expected. In fact, I saw one on VCoins with officina S wrongly described as B.

Procopius
A.D. 365-366
17x19mm 2.6gm
D N PROCO-PIVS P F AVG; pearl- diademed, draped & cuirassed bust left.
REPARATIO FEL TEMP Emperor standing facing, head right, holding labarum in right hand and resting left hand on shield, Chi-rho at top right.
In ex. CONSS dot

Also, here is a lot sold in 2005 by CNG that also has this officina for Procopius.
