Reverse Incription: GENIO AVGVSTI
Reverse Inscription Translation: To the genius of the Emperor
Exergue Markings: AN
Mint Location: Antioch
Note: On the right side of Galerius, one may see an Epsilon followed by a Delta. According to Doug Smith of the ACE Group, this was said to replace a Theta, which was considered to be unlucky, just as the number 13 is unlucky in today's society.
