<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Suarez, post: 4549462, member: 99239&quot;]You got this backwards actually. Gnecchi published a medallion of Carus and Urbica all the way back in 1911 but was for some reason missed by RIC&#039;s authors. They did, however, publish a related Carinus-Urbica medallion (oddly citing Gnecchi). Gnecchi, being more obscure and less used as a first-hand reference, simply fell off the radar. Most dealers and collectors then just made the association with that one and ran with the ball unaware of the other coin. I republished it in ERIC II and you can also see it on Coryssa (<a href="https://www.coryssa.org/906130" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.coryssa.org/906130" rel="nofollow">https://www.coryssa.org/906130</a>)</p><p><br /></p><p>There&#039;s no question that this a family series featuring emperor and wife on one and junior emperor/mother on the other (there&#039;s also a Carinus-Numerian) which was a standard dynastic arrangement. The only other possible interpretation would be that if Urbica was Carinus&#039;s wife then Carus would be celebrating his daughter in law!</p><p><br /></p><p>And hey, from a quick glance I think you guys missed Aemilian, Nigrinian and <b>a bunch</b> of usurpers.</p><p><br /></p><p>Aemilian</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1126236[/ATTACH] Jotapian</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1126237[/ATTACH] Nigrinian</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1126238[/ATTACH] Regalianus</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1126239[/ATTACH] Pacatian</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1126240[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Rasiel[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
