<p>[QUOTE=&quot;red_spork, post: 2639198, member: 74282&quot;]I&#039;m not so sure about that. Find evidence suggest different areas of circulation for some of these litrae and other fractional bronzes of the period and for the Minerva/horsehead litrae(like the one I posted) in particular evidence points toward Central Italian circulation in the area of Latium, Eturia or possibly Umbria, but likely not Magna Graecia. I do think the silver issues were minted for trade with the Greeks and Celts, and they show up plenty in otherwise Greek hoards, but I&#039;m not so sure about the bronzes.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
