Photo of a coin sold the 05/04/2018 by Roma Numismatics Limited, Auction 15, lot 692, link to the sale: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=4871221, link to their website: https://www.romanumismatics.com/.

As mentioned by Roma Numismatics Limited, this coin is not referenced in the RIC X. Noted for Ravenna by Roma Numismatics Limited, to be confirmed, the style is indeed close to that of this mint.

The notable differences between the Tremissii of the mint of Milan and those of Rome are:

Milan

  • latin cross larger and thin.
  • the bottom of the wreath shows large and wide crosses and has no ribbon.

Rome

  • smaller and wider latin cross.
  • the bottom of the wreath shows decorations and ribbons.
