[QUOTE="curtislclay, post: 7810557, member: 89514"][USER=85693]@Marsyas Mike[/USER] If your rev. legend definitely starts with P M, then the tribunician number will be VIIII rather than VIII, because P M was only added to Commodus' rev. legend in the course of his TR P VIIII: all TR P VIII coins still omit it, TR P VIIII coins partially omit it and partially include it, all TR P X coins include it. It follows that RIC 391, quoted from Cohen 419 who cites the Gnecchi Collection, must be a misread TR P VIIII coin, not TR P VIII, because its rev. legend starts with P M. The same should be true of the alleged RIC 391 you found in ACSearch, which I'd be grateful if you could show us here on CT, since I don't find it in CoinArchives.[/QUOTE]
