Notes:
CNG Auction 30, Lot 62919 Very Rare! This coin is apparently overstruck on an Æ 2 of Zeno I with legends D N LEONI-S P P AVG (obverse) and VIRTVS EXERCITI (reverse), RIC X 654. Other than the legends one can see indications on the obverse (ends of diadem of Leo's portrait) and reverse (hand holding a standard to the left of Victory). Also, both of these types of Leo and Verina are from the same issue of coinage.
