Viminacium, Varbanov I #197 and #199. Same type?
« on: October 04, 2005, 03:42:13 pm »
I would need a little help with two similar references of Varbanov I (bulgarian edition) for Trebonianus Gallus at Viminacium.

I'm helping a member of another forum and i noted that his coin fits both #197 and #199. To my eyes these entries have the same descriptions, so i'm wondering why he listed it twice.

Am i missing something or is it just a misprint?

Thanks in advance
Luigi

Luigi,
     Yes, apparently a misprint.  199 should have obv. Da, and 200 should have obv. Db.  With this change, Varb. 195-202 are the exact equivalents of AMNG 160-1 and 163-8.
Yours,
Curtis
