    B: IB Imhoof-Blumer KM, p. 409 no. 40, where the obv. legend is read “ΑΥΤ ΚΑΙ [Μ] links, ΑΥ ΚΛΑΥΔΙΟΝ (so) rechts.” He goes on, “Die Namen des Kaisers, undeutlich und verworren, scheinen in Stempel in ungeschickter Weise geändert worden zu sein, vermuthlich aus ΓΑΛΛΙΗΝΟΝ. Das Porträt der Münze entspricht auch besser dem dieses Kaisers als dem des Claudius.” The coin is labelled “Gallienus” in Berlin today.
