Issues with the reverse "AVG" form rather than "AVGG" are believed to be during Diocletians early reign, before the elevation of Maximian as co-emperor, in 286. These coins are significantly more scarce than the later issues of Antoniniani during the early years of the tetrarchy. Per Hunter after Bastien, this is from the 1st issue of 12 issues from Lyon. Dark patina and EF.
