Yeah I recently had an eBay listing taken down because the coin was minted in Syria (A small AE "persecution issue" under Maximinus Daia.) I...
That is outstanding work!
I've never heard that it does.
You are correct - it is RIC III 259. The legends match. It seems that the RIC authors didn't differentiate between the various shield decorations,...
