[QUOTE="TIF, post: 2491167, member: 56859"]Postumus always looks so jolly. I too am puzzled by the assignment of his coins to mints based on portrait style (specifically, his hair), despite having looked at visual aids. I'd also like to hear a current and educated opinion on the matter. I have just one Postumus and you're all probably sick of seeing it by now. I'll post it again anyway :D.
