<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Finn235, post: 3473697, member: 98035&quot;]That is the explanation I had read. The mint marks on these are all KA- something, which I had assumed to be Cyzicus, but it looks like it&#039;s Rome? Could be a toss up then - either Carinus honoring his dead brother, or Diocletian attempting to establish legitimacy with the Senate and Romans. Unfortunately we don&#039;t know, because all records of Carinus&#039; rule were expunged by Diocletian and replaced with the smear campaign that frames him as a tyrannical, debauched womanizer.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
