<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 3739453, member: 19463&quot;]Septimius Severus RIC 1 FIDEI LEG TRP COS</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1002926[/ATTACH] </p><p>Most rulers started off with an RIC 1 but some missed out by sharing a number system with a co-ruler.&nbsp; Some even have a #1 in more than one volume when their long reign did not all fit in one.&nbsp; Later volumes of RIC started over with RIC 1 for each mint so a ruler could have a dozen different coins and each be RIC 1.&nbsp; However some of those #1&#039;s would be gold or rare so it is not easy to throw together a set of all #1 coins.&nbsp; RIC authors were not consistent with earlier volumes.&nbsp; My Septimius above is a silver denarius but RIC 1 was also applied to the gold aureus of the same design.&nbsp; The fact that more volumes listed gold first really will cut down on the number of RIC 1 coins I ever can own.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
