<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 2478251, member: 19463"]If it is important to you that you have coins of 193, you will have to be more careful on the bottom row. No Albinus as Augustus is that early. Curtis Clay has been fighting for much of his life for recognition of his theory that Albinus died 19 Feb 196 not 197. I believe he is correct and consider it a fine example of how hard it is to correct errors that have so long been part of the official record.
