<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 8284589, member: 19463&quot;]Fourrees of Antony (legionaries and others) are relatively common.&nbsp; I do not know how many of his legions could be collected in fourree.&nbsp; When we are dealing with unofficial issues we can never assume that all have anything in common with all the other unofficial coins.&nbsp; My two were selected as having been made using the silver foil method but that does not mean that someone else was not making them in copper and applying a silver wash later that more easily would wash away.&nbsp; Considering that these coins are attributed to a &#039;moving mint&#039; it is even more possible that even official issues would vary in fabric or style.&nbsp; There are massive numbers of plated coins from the Imperatorial period.&nbsp; I choose to believe that some of them were made at least semi-officially but that is not something easy to prove or disprove.&nbsp; I doubt that there will be a definitive work on the subject in the near future.&nbsp; [ATTACH=full]1463510[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1463511[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
