<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Orfew, post: 3395485, member: 74968&quot;]These were not just some insignificant dates. For someone who collects Domitian they do have some meaning. One of the reasons why some issues of 88 CE are rare is because the mintage was very low and there were few days or weeks of production. Why was it low? It was so because the Emperor&#039;s titles were changing very rapidly. Now why were the titles changing so rapidly? The speculation is that this was a period of intense military activity. These titles therefore tell us something about the history of that time. I would argue that this adds something to our understanding of the time period.</p><p><br /></p><p>We all collect what interests us and that is a good thing. I will continue to obsess over imperial titles and you can have your 2 dots.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
