[QUOTE="Alegandron, post: 3299238, member: 51347"]From my collecting perspective, the coin represents History. I do not claim to collect numismatically, rather I choose to collect Historically. I like the story, and that coin is a placeholder that I can speak with my Grandkids about. If a person can create an uprising, or lead people, and a coin is created, then I see it as an interesting collectible. I cited a couple articles that posit this claim. However, I never stated that I am a scholar, nor an expert. Should you contend the claims, by all means take it to the authors. I am not too sure who makes the decisions regarding the various Rulers, but this coin has a lot of History surrounding it, so I have added it to my collection. Here are those articles again: [url]http://www.forumancientcoins.com/board/index.php?topic=57516.0[/url] [url]https://www.academia.edu/1504998/Usurping_a_Usurper_The_Poemenius_Revolt_at_Trier[/url][/QUOTE]
