<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 4530441, member: 19463&quot;]Correct but we need to add that Greek coins are also listed as AE+the diameter so we can&#039;t say just Provincials.&nbsp; It is fortunate that there are no AE coins as small as 4mm so the system does not get confusing. </p><p><br /></p><p>I agree that the AE1-AE4 scale is ridiculous but it was started a long time ago and changing things like that is hard.&nbsp; Either system suffers from the various sizes of the same coin.&nbsp; We even see coins listed as AE3/4 meaning the thing vary in size enough that some are one and some the other.&nbsp; Large falling horsemen are AE2 but I have one that is wide enough to qualify as an AE1.&nbsp; We could measure the circle of dots rather than the flan but most coins do not show the whole circle. I&#039;m just glad we don&#039;t have to use it for Greek coins. </p><p>[ATTACH=full]1122126[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
