Hi,

I was looking at the random coins of the front page and clicked in one of them.
The title is "Aureus - Probus (VICTORIAE AVG; Victory)".
But to my complete surprise the photo depicts a completely different coin; it have completely different letterings and portrait. In short, I clicked on the page of a Probus coin but there is a Gallienus coin in the photo.

Should I edit it already or leave it to the referees?
Thanks for reading.
It would have helped if you clicked on it, then added the link in your message.
Maybe this was it: https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces293189.html
Token collector [1600-1899] with some coins
In the Comments is a link to the museum site, and that too
has Pictures different from Lettering - so I clicked on their page
and reported the error to them. I wonder is our page all correct except for the pictures,
or are the pictures correct and everything else wrong? Lettering is:
IMP GALLIENVS AVG // VIRTVS AVG

Lastly, there are four pages already on here with the same lettering
as that on both sides. None has a picture though, but maybe they belong there.

​​Damn, how did I forget the link?
Thanks for reminding it.

And yes, that's the coin I meant.
Fixed. Images removed.
