Copper alloy radiate (with some surviving silvering) of Carausius (AD 286-93) (Reece Period 14), FIDES EXERCIT, Four standards. C Mint, - // SPC. RIC V, pt  2, p. 489. no. 223.  It does appear that this is the first example of this coin known with this obverse legend - IMP C CARAVSIVS AVG - because RIC was confusing two other coins.  This is probably the first example of this precise type seen.
