RIC photo G (Tr) III.11, T (Tr) III.12, T-XIV.11 (Ant), G-XIV12 (Ant).
Variety:  RIC Ant 44, plate T-XIV.9, and Nic 29 plate T-XVI.2, has the figure totally facing, "turreted," with no globe. They call it Constantinopolis, so it is a variety of type 16.

This type is often not distinguished properly from type 16, which has the same legend and general appearance, but head and globe right.  For example, RIC Her 16 says "Roma's head right, foot on prow" which makes it Constantinopolis as type 16.
