Coin referenced in the RIC X, n°2113 wich quote Cohen (Honoria) in note. To confirm. No photo seen, I noted the legend breaks that we see on the nummi with other marks.

The legend break SALVS RE - IPVBLICE maybe exist, it is mentioned in the RIC X which does not specify which mint mark corresponds and for which emperor or empress the legend was seen. I have also reclassified the coin with an officina letter T. Indeed it always seems to have a reverse break SALVS RE - IPVBLICE.

Coins of this type can exist with or without an exergue line. I noticed this on the officina Q, AYC # 24 (1), RIC 2113 without line at the exergue and on the AYC # 24 var, RIC 2113 which has a line. I have seen many other coins of this type, varying with or without a line, but none allowed to see the mint mark or officina.
