<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Fugio1, post: 4616543, member: 89970&quot;]I am also very interested in the coins of Diocletian and the tetrarchies leading up to the sole reign of Constantine.&nbsp; I highly recommend RIC volume VI, Diocletian to Maximinus.&nbsp; The background sections on history, the different mints, and dating controversies are highly readable and filled with reference information that one who owns and buys coins like this will go back to over and over again.&nbsp; For about $40 it is essential in my mind.&nbsp;&nbsp; Also, [USER=44316]@Valentinian[/USER] has an excellent educational website that can be found <a href="http://augustuscoins.com/ed/" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://augustuscoins.com/ed/" rel="nofollow">here</a>. The site contains lots of information on Greek and Roman coins but the pages on the coins of this era are particularly good.</p><p><br /></p><p>Just to post a picture, here is a recently purchased coin in this general classification area that I just received in the mail:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1143325[/ATTACH] </p><p>This is an abdication follis issue of Diocletion from the Trier mint - Note the obverse legend &quot;SEN AVG&quot;.&nbsp; A common coin but an interesting and important type.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
