Notes:
(1) Numismatik Lanz Auction 150: Lot No. 249 (2) Ex David Dougherty Coll (3) This denarius is unlisted in RIC, it is however, with the full inscription GERMANICVS, in all aspects identical in description to the aureus described as RIC 001 (2bC). So I have designated it as RIC 001A. This method is used elsewhere in RIC (addendas) to place unlisted coins
