RESTITVTOR REIP

Pearl and rosette-diademed, draped and cuirassed bust of Jovinus to the right.

The emperor standing right, holding a standard with the right hand, a victory with the left hand and placing his foot on a captive on the ground with his hands tied. The victory is placed on a globe, crowns the emperor and holds a palm. The standard is decorated with a cross with a dot at each corner.

The RIC X notes: ''1701, 1703, 1704 obverse die link''. I observe that the n°1703 and 1704 share the same obverse die, but the copy 1704 illustrated does not have the same die. Perhaps the authors of RIC X speak for the 1704 of another coin which is not illustrated. The coin sold by Numismatica Ars Classica has a different obverse die.

The standard is decorated with little dots inside as is the case for the other mints. It is the only coin of this mint where the standard is decorated. This is the only difference with the AYC #6.

The Solidii of this workshop often have a ribbon coming out of the letter G of AVG on the obverse, this is the case for this copy.
