<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 2405241, member: 19463&quot;]How do you determine when a set is complete?&nbsp; I know nothing about Aeolis or hundreds of other places but I do know there are coins uncertainly identified or assigned to a place not accepted by every student.&nbsp; There are cities not known to have coins and coins not assignable to cities.&nbsp; It seems several cities in Aeolis were out of business by the time Provincials started and your list matches those in Head so I assume it is complete.&nbsp; Congratulations on achieving the goal.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>As far as sets completed, I have none.&nbsp; Martin and I might be said to have interest in completing a set of coins from Eastern mints of Septimius Severus.&nbsp; I became interested in the subject 50 years ago and have many coins not listed in RIC but not as many as Martin has.&nbsp; Worse, if we combine our holdings we still would not have a set of what we know to exist and Martin posts new things here on a semi regular basis.&nbsp; I once thought I had a set of the legionary types of Septimius Severus but someone came up with an error die from Alexandria with IIII in place of III which I lack.&nbsp; Oh, well.&nbsp; Being able to complete a set requires great care in selecting subjects.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
