<p>[QUOTE=&quot;David Atherton, post: 3148784, member: 82616&quot;]The Flavian RIC in some cases assigns separate catalogue numbers based on the smallest details, such as the placement of a mint mark within the field on Vespasian&#039;s Ephesian issues. Other times, minor variations in the devices (lack of a thunderbolt on the eagle on base denarii of Vespasian or a lituus on some of Titus&#039; pulvinar types) warrant no separate number. I think the whole thing is quite arbitrary and bares no relationship to whether or not separate assigned catalogue numbers for minor variants is of importance.</p><p><br /></p><p>In any case, I think your &#039;flyspecking&#039; in this case is important enough to take note of.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
