I believe that RIC is out of date with current thinking. I don't think that there are any coins produced for Postumus at Lugdunum as the mint was...
Without having done any analysis I suspect it to be Constans from Siscia based on the fact that this is the set as set out above that I have....
I think that these make an interesting contrasting pair. Constans - AE2 Obv:- D N CONSTANS P F AVG, Pearl diademed, draped & cuirassed bust...
I have treated myself to a stevex6 coin. I will have to wait for it to arrive and share.
I have added a couple of Phoenix examples this year. Constans - AE3 Obv:- DN CONSTA-NS PF AVG, pearl-diademed, draped and cuirassed bust right,...

This Falling horseman from Alexandria is quite uninteresting apart from the apparent difficulty that this engraver with forming the Rs on the...
I would like to say a big thank you to @Severus Alexander . I had immense amouts of fun with his "Group lot goodies" thread...
