[maridvnvm]

A new addition...

Obv:– IMP CE L . SEP SE-V PERT AVG . CO, laureate head right
Rev:– BONI EVENTVS, Fides standing left holding basket of fruit and corn ears

Identifyable through the distinctive obverse die...

I have added another AVG II C, MARTI VICT to my collection.

My previous example above has reverse legend break MART-I V-I-CT with my new example being MARTI - VICT.

Another new II CO for my collection. This isn't a new type for the legend but is a new one for me.

Obv:– IMP CAE L SEP SEV PERT AVG II CO, laureate head right
Rev:– INVICTO IMP TROPAEA, Trophy with captured arms below

Whilst doing more research on the coins of these issues I spotted the following coin in the BM database that is mis-attributed to COS II and is a reverse type not listed by Curtis above though I have seen one other example.

Incidentally my most recent II CO brings my reverse die count to 8 with this obverse die. The search continues.

And another II CO to add. This one is what I think is a new reverse type for the II CO variety.

Obv:– IMP CAE L SEP SE-V PERT AVG II CO, laureate head right
Rev:– FORTVNAE REDVCI, Fortuna (pax?), with modius on head, seated left holding branch and cornucopia
Minted in Emesa. A.D. 194

Another AVG II C, CERER FRVG. A different obverse die and a different reverse die to my example above:-

Look familiar?

How about that! A double die match?

Many thanks Doug.

Not entirely helpful to the thread but I have recently obtained a BONETAE AVG example with an A.D. 193 - AVG obverse.

Same rev. die, as you will have noticed, as the three II C coins listed above on p. 1, one being in your collection and another B. Murphy Severan Silver, no. 221.
