The classification of legend breaks and dots is difficult given the state of the coins, it is possible that dots are present but erased or that some dots are different from those noted. I noted the dots when they are visible, for the breaks disappeared with wear, I analyzed the spaces between the remaining letters. On this coin there may be dots on obverse and reverse, impossible to confirm. I therefore classify it without dots as on this coin sold the 23/03/2019 by Inasta Spa, Auction 80, lot 255, where the absence of dots is clear: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=5789177.
