Theodosius II legend error
« on: July 07, 2012, 01:01:43 PM »
obverse spelling error-- THEODOSVS instead of THEODOSIVS

Theodosius II
A.D. 425- 435
10x11mm  1.2gm
DN THEODO-SVS PF AVG
Rev: wreath surrounding cross
RIC X Constantinople 444

 

Even though the exergue is not clear, I am calling this RIC 444 because there is a footnote in RIC that states that some obverse legends of RIC 444 are misspelled.
