Leo I AR 1/2 Siliqua. Uncertain Germanic imitation of Constantinople mint, circa AD 474. D N LEO PEPPET AVG, pearl-diademed, draped and cuirassed bust right / SAL REI PVI within wreath; CONS* in exergue. RIC 650; RSC 12†a. 0.99g, 16mm, 11h.
Good Very Fine. Pierced and clipped. Toned. Rare.
With their blundered legends, typically lower weight and different fabric, the series to which this example appears to belong must be viewed, as Kent tentatively suggests in RIC, as imitative and separate to the official siliquae of this type that were struck throughout Leo's reign.
