I do not see mine as a cut because of the way the edges curve and taper. That looks like a stress relief fracture to me but I may be assuming...
I'm confused. Spink's 1999 Coins of England is as general as they come and listed on page 151 that my Walter on Canterbury spans type Vc-h. The V...

Antony and Octavian fourree denarius [ATTACH] Next: another Imperatorial fouree
I see a few spots of less than perfect focus. Perhaps one f/stop smaller aperture (larger f/number) would help.
That is an interesting theory. As I see it, what killed the Tetrarchy was Maximianus' not being fully willing to retire with Diocletian and...
