Obv.:
GIC — (eagle standing facing, wings open, head r.) ; The coin has two countermarks (no other specimen is countermarked); once with eagle facing, wings open, head r. (GIC -) and once with another countermark, probably the same eagle one. The countermark is similar to GIC 343, though that is found from the eastern limes (cf. C.J. Howgego, ‘The XII Fulminata: countermarks, emblems and movements under Trajan or Hadrian’, in (ed) S. Mitchell, Armies and frontiers in Roman and Byzantine Anatolia (BAR 156, Oxford, 1983, pp. 41-6).
