[QUOTE="Severus Alexander, post: 7760566, member: 84744"]Very cool! Ken Harl is doing a study of this mint, though focusing on dual-portrait issues. In any case, if there are other Deultum/Marcianopolis mules, he's likely to know of them. Here's a Severus Alexander from Marcianopolis, ex Doug Smith: [ATTACH=full]1330432[/ATTACH] [SIZE=3]MOESIA INFERIOR, Marcianopolis: Severus Alexander (222-235), issued by Julius Gaetulicus, legatus consularis, AE25. 10.29g, 25mm. Obv: AYK M AV CEV AΛΕΧΑΝΔΡΟC, Laureate and draped bust right Rev: ΥΠ ΙΟΥ ΓΑΕΤΥΛΚΟΥ ΜΑΡΚΙΑΝΟΠΟΛΙΤ, Nemesis stg. with scale and rod; below, wheel Moushmov 709, Varbanov 1807. Scarce. From the Doug Smith collection, acquired in 2001 from Colosseum. Gaetulicus seems to have been legate in the first year or two under Severus Alexander.[/SIZE][/QUOTE]
