Ric 75, Common. RIC also gives #315 with an identical description; #75 is atrributed as being from Lugdunum mint and #315 Cologne. As RIC's mint attributions for Postumus don't hold up, I've assumed the two to be identical.

Trier, Issue 2, Officina B. 260-1 AD.
RIC V/2 55, Common.
This is evidently an engraver's error, as Postumus was COS II in 260-1, when he was TRP I, and this is as stated on the common dated coin of this year. I have two of these, from different dies, so evidently the mistake was repeated.Robert_Brenchley
