<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 4619108, member: 19463&quot;]I am surprised that they said AVT rather than AVTO (sic) which abbreviates the word Autokrator which translates Imperator rather than transliterating it.&nbsp; I&#039;m no expert but I think they are overthinking it assuming that the lack of CEB means that it was before he was Augustus.&nbsp; The coin below is from a different place and lacks CEB while showing an older portrait.&nbsp; The legend begins AVtokrator Kaisar.&nbsp; Roman rules do not always hold in the provinces.&nbsp; I suspect research will produce many more examples. </p><p>Pautalia</p><p>[ATTACH=full]1143768[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
