<p>[QUOTE=&quot;John Anthony, post: 2027275, member: 42773&quot;]I&#039;ll take a crack at attributing your coins, Doug, but not all at once. I&#039;m only going to use Varbanov, since I have the volumes. It&#039;ll be good practice.</p><p><br /></p><p>#1 is obviously S. Severus, Faustinianus. Dionysos standing left, holding thyrsos and pouring wine from kantharos to panther at his feet. This is Varbanov 713, except 713 is recorded with the obverse legend AV K Λ CEΠTI CEVHPOC ΠE. This is a mistake in the description, as the plate coin only exhibits Π at the end, not ΠE.</p><p><br /></p><p>I notice your coin also has the curious retrograde TΩN in exergue. I love the sharp detail of the vines on the thyrsos, the kantharos, and the little panther that looks more like a rat.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
