<p>[QUOTE=&quot;maridvnvm, post: 1922141, member: 31620&quot;]Steve,</p><p>I did consider trying to achieve a reverse type set for this mint but that is looking unlikely as there are reverse types that would be commong for other mints that are rare for Lugdunum and achieve $1,000++ price tags when they appear on the market. The same could be said for a bust type set where there are some very unusual busts produced at this mint that hold a very high premium and some busts that would also be considered common for other mints are prohibitively expensive. I will simply carry on chipping away and buying what I can afford when it comes on the market. There is quite a bit of competition for Probus coins with some of the collectors having far deeper pockets that I, which means that I will just have to be satisifed with my small victories now and again.</p><p><br /></p><p>With my OP it was the last coin of the six posted that was my most recent win. On the face of it it would appear to be a common enough coin with a common bust and common reverse type but it has still taken me over 15 years to track one down.</p><p>Regards,</p><p>Martin[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
