Geta, AE18 of Nikopolis ad Istrum, Moesia.

LOY AY KAICAR GETAC, bare-headed, draped, cuirassed bust right.
NIKOPOLITWN PROC IC, crescent and three stars.

AMNG 1647; Varbanov 3218 var (rev. legend without WN and four stars); Turin 1998; Mionnet Supp II, 534.

The author of AMNG writes, "according to old descriptions, 
only three stars are visible in the crescent, but to me,
there appear to be four. It is also possible that there 
is a fourth star beneath the crescent, overlooked on 
coins in poor condition."
