<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 1896063, member: 19463&quot;]This Diocletian is an excellent example of the ise of a dot for the O in his name.&nbsp; Not all his coins did that but the ones that do often throw people.&nbsp; It helps on these not to try to read the legends but to write out the possible names and compare what you can see.&nbsp; Probus is given away by the Pi.&nbsp; Maximinianus has a distinctive Xi.&nbsp; Carus has a short name.&nbsp; Don&#039;t fool yourself by trying to make sense out of each letter but compare the possible answers from the list of rulers in the period.&nbsp; The small module tets seen the most are mostly after Gallienus and the series ended with the currency reform of the First Tetrarchy.&nbsp; Earlier coins are easier to read.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
