Unique Tetricus I and rare Postumus lost / stolen
« on: May 01, 2013, 03:17:17 pm »
Unfortunatly two of my coins are lost or possibly stolen from the mail.
After cleaning by a fellow collector they were send on the 22th of February from Munchen Germany back to me in The Netherlands but never arrived.  
Please see the attached photos.

Coin 1:
Unique Tetricus I

Obv: IMP C ESV TETRRICVS PF AVG - radiate, draped and cuirassed bust right
Rev: FIDES MILITVM
3,09 g.

The obv. legend is unrecorded
Rev ist a die match with the coin pictured in AGK 3A (obv legend of this coin is IMP C G P ESVVIVS TETRICVS AVG)
There has been no publication yet about the coin in question.

Coin 2:
Rare Postumus

Obv: IMP C POSTVMVS PF AVG -  radiate, draped and cuirassed bust right
Rev: IOVI VICTORI C/A
3,14 g.

Please let me know if you see or hear about these very rare / unique coins.
Many thanks in advance.

Regards,

Jos

So again the request to keep your eyes open. Thanks!

No.  That's right.  Last gallery on the right "Lost or Stolen Coins"
