In the short three years of Carus, Carinus, and Numerian their titles on coins underwent several changes. With this post I announce a site on their coins and how they are dated, "Roman Coins of the Emperors Carus, Carinus, and Numerian, 282-285."
http://augustuscoins.com/ed/Carus/

One of my favorites on that page is this one of Carus spelled with a K, which was only used very early in his reign.

Carus,-Carinus,-And-Numerian

Carus
Probably struck sole reign, end of August 282 to autumn 282
23 mm. 3.86 grams.
IMP C M AVR KARVS PF AVG
PAX EXERCITI
Pax standing left holding flower and standard.
VIXXI

RIC 73, Ticinum mint.

If you have a coin of theirs with a reverse legend ending AVG, AVGG, or AVGGG, it has chronological information which is in two tables in that article.
