Some almost &#039;imperial&#039; in style, and yet some that look like the dies were produced by very inexperienced hands. The spectrum is so wide, that I wonder sometimes if there was not another mint in Hispania besides Tarraco.</p><p><br /></p><p>Here is my Galba denarius of Spanish origin, a type which as yet still seems to be unique (although I have recently spotted a similar example which helps confirm its authenticity).</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]814917[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]814918[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
