<p>[QUOTE=&quot;lrbguy, post: 3110215, member: 88829&quot;]Ah, hmmmm.&nbsp; Mostly that&#039;s true, but for Lugdunum, the boys did not use the Constantinopolis type (hence not in RIC VIII).&nbsp; The size change to which I was in reference comes into play in 335.&nbsp; Compare:</p><p>[ATTACH=full]789103[/ATTACH]</p><p>On the left is RIC VII 241 for Lyons at 2.41g and 17mm.</p><p>On the right is RIC VII 273 for Lyons at 1.39g and 13x14mm.</p><p><br /></p><p>The former is 330-331 AD, the latter is 335.&nbsp; This is a rather extreme example of the later coin, I have another with a 16mm flan that fits better but only weighs 1.77g.&nbsp; Not sure what the average weight would be for this later series.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
