Hi Victor,

a very - very nice coin indeed

RIC. 75 lists 3 officinas : A, delta and H  - What about delta instead of Z ?

i will post new pictures about that coin soon  ;)

by the way, i have also 2 others unknown divi (Antioche and Lyon)  to present , do i have to do one post per coin ?

Regards

RIC 75 does not have any dots in the mintmark though. This example has a clear dot at the end and what looks like a dot at the beginning also.

No, feel free to post both in the same topic.
