<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 3181743, member: 19463&quot;]I would suggest that the falling horsemen should be collected with the other types of the FEL TEMP REPARATIO series so one could expand the 54 collection to include the others or keep it about the same by replacing the FH coin of some mint or ruler with, perhaps, a Phoenix on orb of that ruler and mint and replacing another FH with the equivalent hut or galley or whatever was available for that combination.&nbsp; Carefully selected, this could be a nice overview of the coins from the FTR period.&nbsp; Some of the choices will be made for you.&nbsp; Your Magnentius will be a Trier galley like mine.&nbsp; You won&#039;t find a FH of Magnentius even though there are a few out there.&nbsp;&nbsp; I would suggest adding a barbarous coin to the set just to make the point that they exist.&nbsp; I&#039;d even add a Procopius who claimed the throne based on his relationship to Julian II even though his coins read REPARATIO FEL TEMP.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Part of the fun of ancient coins is being able to decide which ones belong in your &#039;set&#039; whether that set is restrictive or massive.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
