Unspecified Eastern mint of Probus, based on S. Estiot article,

 After reading S.Estiot article (you can Academia.edu Site):

"L'emperor et l'usurpateur: un 4e atelier oriental sous Probus" by Sylviane Estiot

I thought I'll see if I can find one or two pieces of my own collection of Antioch.

The following think it is included.:

Although there may be other pieces of more accurate tests are valid here too.

Thanks if anyone has ideas?

SEstiot:

Dear Jozsef,
You are perfectly right in identifying these coins of yours as being minted by what I called the "4th oriental mint" under Probus (the other 3 being Cyzicus, Antiochia and Tripolis): its products are generally confused with those from Antioch, but Antioch strikes coins in 9 officinae and the 4th oriental mint in 6 officinae, and its style is definitively different from the Antiochene one...
All the best,
S. Estiot

Hi,
Just been looking on the academia.edu site and can't find the paper in question under Dr Estiot's listing. Am I doing something wrong?
