<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 3588321, member: 19463&quot;]Yes, That is traditional wisdom attribution but it is PERT for Pertinax.&nbsp; PART came later after the Parthan wars. In 194 they started the legends with IMP date at Rome. AE coins have CAES for CAE.&nbsp; There are early &#039;Emesa&#039; using the same legend which may or may not be 193 since there are a few coins that have that legend and IICOS on the reverse.&nbsp; Remember I hate using words like only, always and never.&nbsp; Generally, regularly etc. are safer but I don&#039;t want to imply that there are any later uses of the first legend from Rome. </p><p><br /></p><p>I love this first legend&nbsp; &#039;Emesa&#039; with TRP COS and IICOS both on the same reverse.&nbsp; Sometimes traditional wisdom fails us. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]958429[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
