Note: This is an interesting coin - the coin is slightly double-struck, but the details are pretty clear. The bust type is not
attested for this coin in RIC and the exergue should have an officina mark, not a pellet.

RIC VII, 50 Heraclea; Bastien, Numismatic Chronicles, 1973, #5 and Pl. 6, 28
Ex Barry Murphy, CICF Show, April 2005
Notes: Bastien suggests in his article that the double bust folles of
Licinius were probably distributed during Licinius' decennalia on 11
November 317, or at the beginning of his fifth consulship in 318. I've been told the VF condition, partial silvering and rough surfaces are typical for this type, which is representative
of a small hoard found some years ago, but no more details are available.
