<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 5245277, member: 19463"]That is a special coin. I do not have a two standard Delmatius or an Antioch mint one. Below is a more standard portrait but I can not find it in RIC. The mintmark seems clearly CONSΓ (shop three of Constantinople) but the only Delmatius recorded is shop ten (I). The example online</p><p><a href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=317515" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=317515" rel="nofollow">https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=317515</a></p><p>has a O on the standard rather than a chi-rho. Does RIC not bother with the symbols on the flag like they would if it were in the field? It mentions the chi-rho in the Arles listing but that mint placed officina letters P or S before the city name and this one has space there and the gamma clear at the end. Is this coin the correct style for the listed mint? Help with this coin would be appreciated. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]1218327[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
