Need some help on this one please.

I cant find this one on wildwinds. I found a lot of them like it but none with the bust facing the same and the mintmark with the star. Constantine facing right mintmark ASIS star.

Thank you for looking !

Wildwinds is far from complete - are you sure that's an A and not a Delta?

 

I think it's a variation of this one, with the addition of a star in the exergue. I don't own RIC, so I don't know if it's a listed variation or not: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=778423

 

Wildwinds does not have all types, especially rarer variants.

 

It's RIC VII Siscia 47 and the workshop looks like Δ

Is this one an unlisted officina ?
Thank you Victor for the help

 

It is listed in RIC, though all the workshops for this issue are rare.

 

Is there a site like Wildwinds that is more complete? Or at that point is the RIC the only real complete resource?

 

Here are my other two coins of the type with the VICTORIAE LAETAE PRINC PERP on the reverse. Not sure if the first one RIC 51 is A or Δ what do you all think it is ?
