<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 3007606, member: 19463&quot;]Nice Probus.&nbsp; It hurts a bit that no one else cares enough about what I consider an interesting sidelight that they even mention it when a specimen comes up.&nbsp; Heaven knows I have posted on the Equiti series often enough.&nbsp; One person&#039;s special interest is another&#039;s garbage. </p><p><a href="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/equiti.html" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/equiti.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/equiti.html</a></p><p>Ticinum Mint Equiti Coins</p><p><font size="6"><b>E</b></font></p><p><img src="http://www.forumancientcoins.com/dougsmith/eq1milw.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> 1st Workshop - P XXI</p><p>CONCORD MILIT</p><p>The first (Prima) workshop used a reverse showing Concordia holding two standards.

To avoid confusion with Secunda, Sexta is shown as the numeral VI. The code letter is in the right field while the (series 3) star is at the left.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>What is this?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
