The first issue (a) has no dots, while (b) has a dot in the arch (c) has a dot in the arch and one in the brick over the door (d) has a dot in arch and a dot in two bricks over the door and (e) has a dot in the arch and three in the bricks over the door.

I have one for Constantine II (RIC.267d) with the three dots for the third officina (2.3g-18mm).
It could be an interesting challenge for a LRBC collector to complete the whole issue.

I've never noticed the different dots... And since I have CCC I will have to get these  :D
