[QUOTE="Marsyas Mike, post: 3119059, member: 85693"]Thank you zumbly - I really appreciate this information. I will correct my attribution accordingly...and humbly withdraw my claims of a Gallienus hybrid... That website is interesting - thank you for the link. I am not sure I entirely understand it - there I did find a reference to Gallienus for RIC 62 (the old RIC, from what I understand) - mine is RIC 63 because of the obverse legend (no C before CLAVDIVS). Both RIC 62 and 63 have an X in the reverse field. "[B]Note[/B] a) 2 coins in V, a coin in L, a coin in C, and a coin in NY have the reverse VIRTVS AVGVSTI X/-//- - Virtus 4a - hybrids, reverse of Gallienus. [B]Reference[/B] Normanby 685 [B]RIC1st[/B] 62" This is described as "RIC temp #270" - the new RIC number, I presume? Wildwinds has the Gallienus reverse die reference for both RIC 62 and 63. I am assuming this is old information now superseded? Since I have to go to work I didn't really have time to delve into it yet, but I am definitely going to use this site to attribute my tiny collection from this era. Thanks again - this is interesting.[/QUOTE]
