[QUOTE="Julius Germanicus, post: 5178294, member: 80783"]I checked. It is only 27 mm and struck with As dies, so it is definitively an As. (Curtis, this is the Morris coin that I questioned to be genuine, but now we know what it is!) You will find one (ex Vierordt and Marinetti collections, A. Schulman 1923) pictured as plate coin in Banti (I Grandi Bronzi Imperiali, Vol. IV-2, P.46 No.3), one (ex Cpt. Sandes Collection) in the MK Berlin, and one in the KHM Vienna (No. RÖ 42519). The others are in private collections. Thanks! But that honour would have to go to Curtis Clay who has been working on the Severan Coinage like no one else. The die studies that I do are mainly stimulated by the rarer Sestertii in my collection and I have no clue about statistics on other denominations whatsoever :)[/QUOTE]
