Dear Joszef,

Thank you for showing these two coins of Tacitus.

The first one, from Siscia, is rare : as you note on your file name, it corresponds to RIC temp #3758 known by 5 examples.
I would be happy to add yours as it is the best conserved coin of all : could you send me pics in a higher resolution as its weight and axis (it is possible to do so from the MER/RIC 268-276 AD website directly, using the "Submit a new specimen" button).

The second one, I think, does not correspond to RIC temp # 3362 (1rst issue of Ticinum : juvenile portrait, sleeve raised in an Adventus gesture), but to RIC temp # 3400 (2nd issue : mature portrait), a commoner coin.
