Title: Maximinus II VIRTVTI EXERCITVS from Cyzicus
Post by: Victor on August 10, 2019, 02:26:56 PM
RIC does not list this mintmark with combination of field devices, though it should come after RIC 110. RIC notes that the evidence for group vi (RIC 108- 110…✶ over A-Z) is very poor. This mark would be group vii and must have been struck close to the time of the death of Maximinus II.
