<p>[QUOTE="kevin McGonigal, post: 4119071, member: 72790"]I think the majority of research into the debasement of the silver during the reign of Severus Alexander indicates the exact opposite of what RAG Carson states. The silver of Severus first shows that he maintained the silver at what it was at the start of his rule and then in the last three years, before his murder, that he actually increased the fineness of his coinage. For that I cite the Kenneth Harl book. I have seen that elsewhere as well.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
