Vota coins of Julian II and Jovian

This page is only on the copper denominations. It does not consider the silver siliqua of this period which commonly mention vows.
 

Julian II issued only one vota type and it is common from numerous mints:

Julian II, Caesar 355, Augustus 361-363
20-18 mm. 2.63 grams.

VOT/X/MVLT/XX in wreath
CONSPA in exergue

RIC VIII Constantinople 166 "3 Nov. 361 - 26 June 363"

These were not stuck for Julian as Caesar. The numbers are both vota taken, not paid.
