Notes:
(1) Numismatica Ars Classica Auction 51: Lot No. 212 (2) This aureus is unlisted in RIC, while it is similar to RIC 001, with the full inscription GERMANICVS (2bC), the obverse break P_G (2aC) is unlisted for this issue. While it should precede RIC 001, I have designated it as RIC 001B. This method is used elsewhere in RIC (addendas) to place unlisted coins
