<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Claudius_Gothicus, post: 5572579, member: 116315&quot;]Fantastic additions [USER=101013]@Limes[/USER] ! Right now there&#039;s a very rare coin from my wishlist for sale, but I&#039;m buying it in February, so I can&#039;t show it right now. However, a few days ago I was struck by Probus fever <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie8" alt=":D" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> and I ended up buying this lot of three antoniniani (ex Leu Web Auction 14, lot 2495) and the seller has quite a few more of them, so I&#039;ll probably end the month with around a dozen of them.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1241503[/ATTACH] </p><p>Probus (276-282), Antoninianus, Siscia mint, 4th officina.</p><p>Obverse: IMP C M AVR PROBVS P F AVG, radiate bust left, wearing consular robes and holding eagle-tipped sceptre, seen from the front;</p><p>Reverse: VIRTV-S PROBI AVG, Probus on horseback galloping right, spearing enemy kneeling before him with arms raised; Q in field.
