Coin referenced in the RIC X: Zagreb, Narodni Musej. Descriptions and legend breaks uncertain, no photos seen. I have noted the legends and breaks that can be seen on AYC # 19, RIC 2109.

I noted Victoria in the description, it is also considered to be an angel. The image of victory at that time having become that of an angel symbolizing Christian victory. Here, unlike Solidi, I noted Victoria because the character holds a palm and refers to the image of the war.
