Harry G Posted January 25, 2023 · Member Share Posted January 25, 2023 Hi all! I just thought I'd share a recent purchase I made - a copy of MIR (or, more formally, "Die Münzprägung der Kaiser Valerianus I./Gallienus/Saloninus (253/268), Regalianus (260) und Macrianus/Quietus (260/262)") While browsing the plate book, I found an interesting coin! It looks like my "TIA AVG TIA AVG" error coin of Gallienus is the plate coin in MIR! (apologies for the glare in the picture) It appears a plaster cast of this coin was sent in to MIR, rather than the coin itself. So far, this is my one and only plate coin! Incidentally, here's the listing in MIR: If anyone knows anything about the collection of "Knudsen, Hamburg", please do let me know 😄 Show me some of your books and plate coins! 22 1 3 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shanxi Posted January 26, 2023 · Supporter Share Posted January 26, 2023 The good thing about Göbl is that you can assign numbers to coins he didn't know yet. The bad: The whole tables are not easy to understand. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qcumbor Posted January 26, 2023 · Supporter Share Posted January 26, 2023 Excellent ! Plus it is a fabulous coin, with its "playing cards" reverse. I love it Q 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
