[QUOTE="maridvnvm, post: 2074914, member: 31620"]I will avoid the Probus tsunami as I am sure people don't want that. I have a collection of Probus coins from all the mints though my primary focus areas are Lugdunum, 2nd issue from Rome and Alexandria. Compiling a Rome mint AEQVITI set is the simplest and there are very few variations to distract you along the way. Though there are a couple of options for the ending TI coins. The Ticinum series are quite a bit more complicated. Getting a set of coins to spell EQVITI is relatively straight forward. I did collect these a few years ago. It then depends on how strict you want to be with yourself as to the definition of a "set". A range of coins spelling out the codeword [B]or [/B]a set of coins from the same emission/issue spelling out the codeword [B]or [/B]a set from the same emission with matching obverse legends [B]or[/B] a "matched" set from the same emission with matching obverse legends. G/< at the probvs.net website put the following page together providing a tabular view of some of the options with these coins.
