RIC VI Rom 158b
28mm; 9.7g; nummus
Listed as S in RIC. The "Moneta" types were struck much later at Rome than at the other mints. Not only is it the only mint to strike these coins for Severus II, but this coin is struck for him during the short time that he reigned as Augustus. The other mints nominally under his control had long since shifted to a variety of military reverse types, reflecting the impending conflicts with Maxentius and Constantine, so the continuance of this early, politically unremarkable type from the first Tetrarchy suggests that perhaps he was not exerting very active control over the Rome mint, even before Maxentius overtly revolted.
