<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 1834115, member: 19463"]Since I have already reprinted my coin catalog for the end of the year, the coins that arrived today will show as the first of 2014. I bought the Galerius as Caesar because a recent CT thread pointed out to me that I did not have a pre-reform Caesar coin. The Diocletian followed it on the same postal charge and was selected because I did not have the SML mintmark. Both coins are from Lugdunum but the Diocletian dates to the earlier period before there were Caesars. The Galerius is one of those common types that represent an uncommon group since there were relatively few coins struck for Galerius before the Reform eliminated the antoninianus denomination. I won't ask you to post your similar coins since we just covered these last week.</p><p><br /></p><p>I still have two coins on order but they are coming from overseas and would require a postal miracle to be here before New Year's Day.
