P, T, II / XXI issue is the last for Probus at The Siscia mint.

Carus Augustus with Carinus Caesar takes control and it then forms their 1st Emission (issue).

Thus the reverse RESTITVT ORBIS is continued with some Probus dies reused,

they are P, T and II / XXI - BUT with/without star added above (T / XXI 3rd Officina for Carinus Caesar only).

Some busts of Carus Augustus coins in this 1st Issue look very much like that of Probus.
