paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 12/04/2023 9:53 pm Beautiful. Looks good with the Numerian. I still do not have a Carinus as I cannot find an affordable example that's not terribly thrashed. I need one like your original.

maridvnvm Pillar of the Community United Kingdom 2099 Posts	Posted 12/05/2023 04:39 am Another very nice upgrade. I have just come across my old collection from this dynasty and am working through them. My predilection is Lugdunum mint. This one isn't high grade but is scarce. I will post some better grade examples when I get to them. Carinus Obv:- IMP C M AVR CARINVS AVG, Radiate, bust right in imperial mantle Rev:- SALVS AVGG, Salus standing right, feeding snake Minted in Lugdunum (_\|D / LVG), Emission 7, Officina 4. early A.D. 284 Reference:- RIC 216 var (not listed with this bust type in RIC). Cohen -. Bastien 574 (1 example cited) This would appear to be only the second example of this bust type for Carinus known. Report this Post to the Staff
