VICTORIA AVGGG (2nd reign, 476 / 491, 4th issue)

Bust of Zeno facing, cuirassed, wearing helmet with crest and a pearl diadem. Holding a spear passing behind his head with the right hand and a decorated shield with a horseman slaying an enemy, with the left hand.

An angel standing left, holding a long latin cross decorated with jewels. Behind her on the right, a star.

Photo of a coin sold the 19/04/2016 by CGB.fr, e-Monnaies Avril 2016, lot 385787, link to the sale: https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=3813896, link to their website: https://www.cgbfr.com/. The copyright stuck on the coin on the reverse has been withdrawn (with the agreement of CGB.fr), slightly modifying the actual visual from 5 to 6 o'clock at the bottom of the reverse of the coin.

Variant without jewels on the diadem and with PPERP on the obverse; the coin has undergone a double strike but the position of the letter E of PERP indicates that there is space for two letters before it. I have classified this coin as having the TS mark but this is very uncertain. The officina mark is almost illegible. I see AVGGG positioned high and therefore leaving room for two letters .. to complete, the final shape seems to correspond to an S. Same for the mark CONOB or CONOR? However, the style does not match with the fourth issue.

On the reverse I noted ''Angel'' in the description. We can also say that this is Victoria but the image of the victory at that time had indeed become that of an angel symbolizing the Christian victory.
