[QUOTE="maridvnvm, post: 1796945, member: 31620"]Probus Obv:– IMP C M AVR PROBVS P F AVG, Radiate bust right in imperial mantle, holding sceptre surmounted by eagle Rev:– SOLI INVICTO, Sol in spread quadriga, holding globe, whip and billowing cloak. Minted in Serdica (Γ in exe) Emission 3 Officina 3. Reference:– RIC 861 var. Radiate bust right in imperial mantle, holding sceptre surmounted by eagle (This bust type is not listed in RIC. This issue mark is not listed for this mint). There is growing evidence that this coin forms part of an unlisted second series of mintmarks used during the third emission of Serdica using Greek letters that ran in parallel to the Roman equivalent.
