I have just photographed a Constantius Chlorus Ant. from Lugdunum. It comes from the last issue pre-reform. This issue seems to be generally quite scarce. The more common depiction of Pax with Victoriola is replaced with an olive branch in these later issues.

This coin has patchy silvering which really detracts from the look making it quite unattractive.

Constantius Chlorus, Antoninianus

Obv:- CONSTANTIVS NOB C, Radiate, draped and cuirassed bust right
Rev:- PAX AVGG, Pax, standing left, holding olive branch and scepter
Minted in Lugdunum (//A). Emission 12, Series 2, Officina 1. A.D. 294
Reference:- Cohen -. Bastien 614 (3 examples cited). RIC V Pt. 2 Lugdunum 634
