Ex Carlos Escuer, eBay, August 2003

Notes from Keith Metzer, Arelatum/Constantina Campgate Specialist, August 2003: In Patrick Bruun's book, "The Constantinian Coinage Of Arelate", these coins are discussed. From what I can gather, early in the 20th century, there was a German collector named Otto Voetter, who published his collection. It included two PROVIDENTIAE coins of Constantius II with exergue ARLD. He also mentioned a third coin, with same exergue, but also having S |F in fields. He proposed series of ARLA, ARLB, ARLG, ARLD and S | F ARLA, S | F ARLB, S | F ARLG and S | F ARLD. This would tie in perfectly to the with and without S | F markings on the regular officinae series. Bruun found the first two coins in Vienna, but the only evidence of the S | F coin was from a line drawing in Voetter's catalog. The two coins he saw were a 5-layer and a 6-layer gate, so definitely from different dies. Nevertheless, he decided to dismiss all of these as some sort of error by a mint worker. All of this is mentioned very briefly in RIC VII in the footnotes to Arles 312. I would say your new specimen, from officina A, puts more evidence to Voetter's original theory. Besides a new officina, this piece is also with a new obverse.

Note: Same as RIC VII, 273 with different bust type. The obverse legend is misspelled - should be CONSTANTINVS. Also, the exergue mark is incorrect - should be T*AR and appears to be a deliberate P and not just a mis-struck R.

Ex Claude Peltier, eBay, January 2006

Note: The reverse legend contains a retrograde letter and the exergual mark is not listed for any issue in RIC. The footnotes on p. 265 for RIC 297 minted c.325-326 do describe another similar series - "NaH has 1 coin with ordinary m.m; another QA crescent RL pellet (no. 177). Also 1 NaH (no. 165) Providentiae augg with m.m. pellet SA crescent RL. Note in this context that Dattari (p. 505) records a Virtus caess 5 (B4 l.) with a dot in the gateway above the arch (as, for example, Providentiae of Rome). Neither of these is sufficient evidence for a sub-issue."
