Ancients - It's Obvious its Postumus

I'm thinking Trier, Mint I.

Thanks for your help, Bing ...

Ummm, watching me trying to fumble-through a RIC-ID must have been a bit like watching a baby deer taking its first steps, eh?




... ummm, or as you've stated before => kinda like watching a racoon with its first beer!!

 

Or it's second or third etc. To be honest, I'm not certain of the mint. I thought Cologne at first, but the portrait wasn't right. Maybe I'll have a beer with ya.

 

Nice pickup!

 

Here's mine below. Note the globe in the examples both above and below. (Not that we needed more proof that the Ancients had an appreciation for a round earth and not a flat earth.)

To my eye, however, the obverse looks like a Cologne obverse and not a Lyons one.
