Laurel wreath terminating in central medaillon; below, two pellets. Bendall, Anonymous silver, RN 158 (2002), Type 6. Ramskold, Coins and medallions (2011), p. 149, fig. 14B (this coin). RIC -. RSC -. Rare. Somewhat rough and with two thin flan cracks, otherwise, good very fine.

From the collection of Dr. L. Ramskold, ex Classical Numismatic Group 55, 13 September 2000, 1448.

Ramskold (Coins and medallions [2011]) included the star-and-wreath type in the emissions struck for the inauguration of Constantinople on 11 May 330. New material, offered in this auction, shows that the possibly related 'C / A V / O' type was struck in Thessalonica sometime between 317 and 320. The date and mint of the star-and-wreath type is therefore uncertain.
