Coin referenced in RIC X n° 2090, not illustrated. I followed the RIC descriptions for the legend. For the pearl necklace and the cross on the shoulder, I noted what is most commonly seen on the coinage of Galla Placidia. Sources: museum of Turin and Kunsthistorisches museum of Vienna.
Note of the RIC X 90, page 374: ''One obvers die reads GALL''.
