Please can you help me with the attribution of this Tetricus antoninianus. I think that it is as following, but I'm not sure: TETRICUS I (271-274). Antoninianus. Colonia Agrippinensis. Obv: IMP C TETRICVS P F AVG. Radiate, draped and cuirassed bust right. Rev: COMES AVG. Victory standing left, holding wreath and palm frond. RIC 56. Thanks.
Looks like you’ve pretty much got it... the only amendment I’d make is that the reverse legend ends in “AVGG” rather than “AVG.” I’m not sure if that changes the RIC number or not... you’ll have to look. Everything else appears correct!
Looks barbarous to me... and probably supposed to be Tetricus II (no beard). A closer look at the obverse legend may tell you more (I can’t really make it out in the photo). Tetricus I Coins usually start with IMP C or just IMP and end in PF AVG or just AVG. While TII Coins almost always end in CAES or something similar and start with C PIV ESV or similar... something other than IMP. There are always exceptions to everything I just said above. ...as for the cost... seems high, but if you like it, go for it.
