<p>[QUOTE="Valentinian, post: 5156805, member: 44316"]If the reverse legend on a coin of Carus does not end AVG, AVGG, or AVGG, as that one does not, there are no simple chronological indicators on the coin. However, it is possible for the mint- and field-mark sequence to add information. <i>RIC</i> (published very long ago in 1933) attributes that combination to Siscia and does not put the Siscia mintmarks in order, so the coin is dated to the entire length of his reign, which would include the time period when his sons were co-rulers. If research since then has put them in order and dated them more precisely, I'd like to learn about it.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
