Thank you for that info. I have amended the attribution details regarding the mint and date range of striking.

As some of you will be aware, this coin was seized by Spanish Customs, held until I had transferred an exorbitant amount of Euros. Its details were then sent to the Cultural and antiquities dept who held it for another week before releasing it. Finally it has arrived, and here he is. A weak reverse strike but I wanted it for the Obverse Postumus AR Antoninianus. Trier, 264-265 CE IMP C POSTVMVS P F AVG, radiate, draped and cuirassed bust right / MONETA AVG, Moneta standing left with scales in right hand and holding cornucopiae and raising hem of skirt with left.

This is one of the main characteristics which distinguishes this coin from RIC 315 from Cologne, on which the hair is in more or less straight lines.)

I inherited the collection of my Father in Law in 2018, my first experience of being the caretaker of coinage. My Father, in 2019 bought me two coins, the first and only two he bought for me, for my Birthday. Sadly he passed suddenly a month before my Birthday so my Mum gave them to me in Canada after the funeral. Here is one of them, a Canadian silver dollar. These have a special place in my heart
