<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Pellinore, post: 3336965, member: 74834&quot;]Thanks for your thoughts, Irbguy. The personnel at the mint might have possessed all sorts abilities and might be given to tricks and pranks, or maybe not, we&#039;ll never know. The obverse of the &#039;Constans&#039; is oddly weak, but in your view, it can have been deliberate. They must have gone a long way to omit the two letters, but when the reverse was a prank, the celator possibly wanted to anonymize the obverse so not to incur Someone&#039;s wrath. (Or maybe not).</p><p><br /></p><p>Who would you suggest for the &#039;Probus&#039;? I think the coin would fit <a href="http://www.wildwinds.com/coins/ric/probus/RIC_0175_REB.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.wildwinds.com/coins/ric/probus/RIC_0175_REB.jpg" rel="nofollow">this one on Wildwinds</a> with text IOVI CONS PROB AVG on the reverse, RIC 175.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
