<p>[QUOTE="dougsmit, post: 2883065, member: 19463"]Valerian was in TRP VIII when captured in 260. I read your coin as PM TRP III COS III PP. COS IIII came in 257 with TRP V so any TRP V or higher must have a COS IIII. Valerian took consulships each of his first years so I (not marked), II and III will match for both offices. The first Wildwinds listing ignored the weak third I of IIII. Wildwinds is a wonderful place but it is a compilation of submissions copied from sales records and includes many errors based on people selling coins they do not understand. Dane does her best to police new listings but she inherited enough issues to take years of editing. There is no reason to expect any type in any year but it is always possible that other possible types will show up using the possible combinations. Of course most of Valerian's coins are undated.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
