Marks
Coin illustrated in the RIC X, n°3228, source: Sotheby (Genève) 17th November 1989, lot 140 = Vedrin hoard 52.
These coins are struck at the same time as the coins of Julius Nepos and its recognizable with the marks M D without star.
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.
