—	—			Michigan	Karanis 49890 (not illustrated)		6.10	12	Karanis 49890: coin is catalogued among those of Carinus Augustus, for whom Tyche rev. is known with star in l. field; not otherwise known for Carus. But the legend, which clearly begins AKMAK..., does not have room to accommodate APINOCCEB and actually appears to have APOCCEB.	Show
