<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 1774061, member: 19463&quot;]One reason I never went full on into Probus was the realization that he had so many rare types and ones that always sold at prices way out of my league.&nbsp; Even without getting into the gold he has a number of special coins that would be hard to find as sleepers in junk boxes.&nbsp; Perhaps the splashy example is the obverse with horse head:</p><p><a href="http://www.acsearch.info/record.html?id=563655" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.acsearch.info/record.html?id=563655" rel="nofollow">http://www.acsearch.info/record.html?id=563655</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Without doing any research on the question, I wonder if a complete set of Probus including all the obverse and reverse variations from all the mints would add up to more coins than any other emperor.&nbsp; I know he does not have the highest count of RIC numbers but volume V lumped so many very different coins under one number that a count is difficult.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
