The list on Forvm gives 69 options so we have a long way to go to get a set if that were the intent (not). I am concerned after comparing my coins to that list that my better silver coins are not all early and more bronze ones all later as I would expect. The next thing would be to compare all the examples I find and see if certain reverses tend to be silver and others tend to be bronze. I only have one duplicate and the two (Moneta AVG) are not at all similar to each other making me wonder if that reverse made a double appearance. I like Postumus - such a handsome guy.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
