The Maximianus has a really nice portrait. The Pagans are among my favorite coins and I am making some headway in completing the set by workshop numbers of the two common types. The other common one is shown about halfway down my page:

along with an explanation of why you have trouble finding them in RIC. I won't give it away here and spoil jw's joke. A few of mine can be seen on CoinProject:

The Decentius is Rome mint and really a lot better than average for these. I'd certainly love to have any of these three.

Very interesting write-up Doug. I have seen the coin you have pictured on your page. In fact, I just saw one for sale somewhere when I was researching the coin I purchased. I knew very little about these coins prior to this one coming up for sale, but now I'm very interested in putting together a collection. That is, if I can find affordable coins of course. Thanks for the link.
