<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Valentinian, post: 2265651, member: 44316&quot;]Here is an AE2 of the roman empress Aelia Flaccilla (wife of Theodosius who reigned 379-395).</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]450551[/ATTACH] </p><p>AEL FLAC-CILLA AVG</p><p>SALVS REI-PVBLICAE</p><p>empress standing, head right, with arms across chest. </p><p>&lt;dot&gt;SMHA&nbsp;&nbsp; [sacra moneta Heraclea, officina A]</p><p>with cross in right field</p><p><br /></p><p>It is 24-23 mm, 4.54 grams, with 12:00 die axis. It is close to RIC IX Heraclea 25, but lacks the star in the left field that RIC 25 has. So, technically, it is &quot;not in RIC&quot;. I have seen another one, so it is not unique and I am not claiming it is rare or valuable. </p><p><br /></p><p>For more late Roman AE, see</p><p><a href="http://esty.ancients.info/ricix/index.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://esty.ancients.info/ricix/index.html" rel="nofollow">http://esty.ancients.info/ricix/index.html</a></p><p>where this type is &quot;type 23&quot;. </p><p><br /></p><p>Do you have any Roman coins to show us that are &quot;not in RIC&quot;?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
