<p>[QUOTE=&quot;thejewk, post: 8321757, member: 100136&quot;]I am fairly sure that there is no mint mark on this one, just some incrustations.&nbsp; The &#039;floor&#039; beneath Victory&#039;s feet is almost touching the dotted border, leaving no space, and I see no letters in the fields.</p><p><br /></p><p>GK Askew&#039;s book The Coinage of Roman Britain lists your coin as number 200, Victory advancing right with wreath and palm; sometimes with a captive at her feet.&nbsp; No captive on your one that I can see.&nbsp; It references RIC 175-176, and the description matches your obverse legend and bust type, but on OCRE it gives the mint mark as S/P//ML.&nbsp; I would give it the reference RIC 175 (var.) and note that your example is without a mint mark, which is not at all unusual with Carausius coins in my experience.</p><p><br /></p><p>Wonderful coin![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
