<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Roman Collector, post: 2758815, member: 75937&quot;]Post your Trebonianus coins, Volusians, etc. Whatever you feel is relevant. </p><p><br /></p><p>The mint at which this issue was produced is apparently unclear. While RIC (IV-3, p. 151) unambiguously attributes this one to the Milan (Mediolanum) mint* on the basis of its obverse inscription IMP C C VIB TREB GALLVS AVG instead of the IMP CAE C VIB TREB GALLVS AVG found at Rome, Sear (vol 3, p. 227) is more cautious about attributing it to a specific mint, noting that Milan, Viminacium, or Rome are all possibilities.**</p><p><br /></p><p>How strong is the data for attributing this to Milan?
