<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 8171748, member: 19463"]I do not have a left facer with no adjuncts but as a general collector not all that concerned with what is rare for Probus, I doubt I would have bought any had they been available when I was buying Probus. There must have been a group hit the market when I got these. It is a bit odd that I am very aware of rarity in my specialties of choice but really do not care when it comes to the general collection. I would very much like to have some of the rare Probus coins (the horse head comes to mind) but the appeal to me is not the rarity but the type having something special. Mine appealed to me for the shields. Plain coins, rarity not withstanding, are for specialists who want to have them all. Probus must have had quite a wardrobe judging from his coin portraits. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]1427611[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1427612[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1427614[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1427615[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
