<p>[QUOTE=&quot;EWC3, post: 3017052, member: 93416&quot;]Thanks - I have a rather rudimentary knowledge of Roman matters so it nice to get agreement. Those strange imported/copied foreign coin seem an interesting phenomenon. Reminiscent of the imported &quot;Galley Halfpennies&quot; of medieval England, and in a different way, the evasives of the 18th century Britain. All indications that there is something wrong with the official small change supply.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>I recall getting into a rather passionate exchange related to this matter with Ted Buttrey, and citing early 20th century Californian tokens as a further example, which he was rather unhappy with. I was leaning in my argument on a letter about them I had got from Steve Album, but feel sure Steve subsequently rather switched sides, once he saw which way the wind was blowing. Perhaps I still have the original letter though, deep in a tray somewhere?</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>Rob[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
