<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lrbguy, post: 2882652, member: 88829&quot;]Given the misspelling in the obverse legend on that Gallienus piece (in Mike&#039;s first post above), coupled with its unlisted status overall, chances are it was an unofficial ancient hybrid.&nbsp; Many such are listed and described in the BMC catalog for Roman Imperial.&nbsp; RIC, not so much.&nbsp; Before I started counting off the big bills, I would want to lay that to rest. </p><p><br /></p><p>On the other hand, new discoveries of coins that fill a blank spot in the catalog, where the features of the coin could be predicted, these are an entirely different matter.&nbsp; Not all &quot;new discoveries&quot; are created equal.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
