Maximian AR Argenteus. Carthage, AD 300. MAXIMIANVS AVG, laureate bust to right / XC VI in two lines surrounded by laurel wreath, pellet in centre. RIC VI 15b; RSC 698+a (Rome). 3.45g, 18mm, 6h.
Extremely Fine; beautiful old cabinet tone.
From the David Miller Collection, collector's ticket included.
Assigned to Carthage in RIC, though having no mint mark to prove this, it has since been postulated that this type might better be attributed to the mint at Rome due to stylistic parallels and the chance find in an English hoard of a piece with PR in the reverse exergue.
