[QUOTE="curtislclay, post: 4133423, member: 89514"]A nice set! Your Albinus above calls him COS, so is definitely of 193. In 194 he was Septimius' colleague in the consulship, so COS advanced to COS II on the coins. Julia Domna's VENERI VICTR type, mint of Rome, was also definitely of 193, as shown by a careful matching of her types against those of Septimius. The engraver's error VENERI VICOS on one of her denarius dies confirms this dating, since it ends COS of 193 not COS II of 194 on.[/QUOTE]
