<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Tejas, post: 7621812, member: 84905&quot;]Hello Klaus and Al</p><p>thanks a lot for your input.</p><p>So far I know that:</p><p><br /></p><p>CONOB was used on Honorius&#039; Tremisses from Constantinople</p><p><a href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=5389115" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=5389115" rel="nofollow">https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=5389115</a></p><p><br /></p><p>COMOB and COM was used at Ravenna</p><p>eg</p><p><a href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=5462548" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=5462548" rel="nofollow">https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=5462548</a></p><p><br /></p><p>COM was used at Rome. I have not yet found an example with COMOB</p><p>e.g.</p><p><a href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=432845" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=432845" rel="nofollow">https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=432845</a></p><p><a href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=7934420" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=7934420" rel="nofollow">https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=7934420</a></p><p><br /></p><p>CON (maybe also COM) was used at Milan. I have not yet found an indisputably official example with CONOB. I found 9 specimen on acsearch all with CON/COM</p><p>eg</p><p><a href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=90240" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=90240" rel="nofollow">https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=90240</a></p><p><br /></p><p>But I just realise that I was completely blind ... or as a German saying goes &quot;I couldn&#039;t not see the forrest for all the trees&quot; ... While researching the CONOB vs. CON problem It just occurred to me that my Tremissis has the Solidus reverse legend</p><p><br /></p><p>VICTORIA AVGGG</p><p><br /></p><p>A Tremissis should have</p><p><br /></p><p>VICTORIA AVGSTORVM</p><p><br /></p><p>Or are there any examples of official Tremisses with VICTORIA AVGGG? If not, than the mystery is solved, the piece is imitative.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
