Message:: [QUOTE="Humilau, post: 24840790, member: 138176"]Yes! I have some Gysen coins in my collection as a Probus collector. I am continuing on heavily researching Probus in my free time. Quite a field to behold. If I were to find that KA coin I'd buy it quickly haha, the KA coins are my specialty within my specialty of the Siscia Probus niche. To my understanding I thought that the 1838 Catalog from CFA included coins from both CFA and JQA and the later 1880-1890s-ish (Its undated, so just a guess) catalog by Henry Adams has the more complete CFA stuff. I believe I did find your quinarius in the undated catalog, but correct me if I am wrong haha I do Siscia Probus. Sadly, the right side is a little cut off but it is the grain measurement which looks to be around 26 grains. I don't believe I've seen anywhere that the catalog lists the provenance of the coin, but they do give individual descriptions like this as well as grain weight in both catalogs. JQA although in his world coin catalog does note some places such as Russia or from the US mint master from where he'd get certain coins. I can always check for the Sotheby's Catalog if I make another visit there. I am always in the area. But searching their online inventory system is a pain haha.Below is the section in which I think your coin is in. The middle coin. [ATTACH=full]1591263[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
