RIC V, pt 2, p. 512, no. 571.The Wolf and Twins reverse is one of the more common reverse types for silver denarii of Carausius, but this is only the second example with the legend RENOVA ROMAN that Sam Moorhead has seen; the obverse legend differs, however, making this coin the only known specimen of this precise type. This coin has been included in the corpus for the new edition of RIC on Carausius and Allectus.
